Ghostman..you cant tease with a statement like that and not give us a small teaser clue man! LOL

I almost sold my car a couple weeks ago to buy a new F150 and then I washed up the car and detailed it....then I looked back at it and said HELL NO! Shes an old car and takes a bit to keep up with (recent 900 dollars spent on it) but damn is it nice still!!

Our cars are great, despite getting a grand bill keeping up with maintenace I'm still not selling. Not that I need another reason to keep her but definately I'm interested in this news!

Don't know what Will did but well done for doing it!
