Yes, B.O., you are correct. It is just like the Ford combos you had mentioned. So similar since those Ford combos were in prior year offerings that met all emission standards, were VIN registered, and certainly offer zero performance advantage over the cars that they powered that roamed the streets of this fine nation.

You have offered up a perfect example of comparison.

Will you be at Topeka? Mebbe you can come by and scoff at my paper car. It will be a dirty piece-o-crap that won't be hard to spot and I will be the one standing there looking like I have better places to be.
