    You've got a great support group in GA. We are a close knit bunch. Ask and you might receive - if we have what you're looking for.

    Lol, yeah that is funny. The K in the VIN means assembled in Kansas. The DSO 21 means it was sold in Atlanta. Sorry for the confusion. :cool:

    Kind of reminds me of a guy named Gary I work with that complains about being an old man everyday when my boss bitches at him for not doing crap. He's 39. Then my buddy Ray Smith who's a WWII veteran (retired from the Air Force in 1972) walks in the shop and works circles around poor old Gary... My boss bought me lunch a few days ago and old Ray offered to buy me and my boss lunch today. Gary didn't show up to work today again.

    There's a moral to this story that has to do with respect and my views...

    Well, that explains the "respectable" post. (y)


    And that punk "Hawkco" is nothing but a trouble-making hooligan, so beware. ;)
