Double bed and armchairs = a caravan?

Apparently heading towards BK where it will be boxed for return to Canada.

Must be something we don't know about - FlightAware has its speed listed as 2768 knots!

OK.....which is which?

One flying classic and one driving ...classic to be!

This thing is awesome! You can take your pick which one.

Yep, mission accomplished - we're all green with envy Jaba...!

The 86 will definitely be a classic. Nice colour choice also - showes off the lines the best out of all the colour options IMHO.

Oh, nice plane too...

Your first shot is interesting Trojan, I thought Nath lost all his toys?
Yes, he has. I can't remember the exact date but this was only about a week before the proverbial hit the fan. Beautiful helicopter.

Jaba, at least 'Big Bird' comes with the optional wing.
Wouldn't the missus let you get the GTS Option Pack?
wimp.

Trent, it adds weight and drag.

Side skirts lower ground clearance.

Cost had nothing to do with it, and I prefer it without them actually.

Bang for buck, this is one of the best cars I have ever driven. Not for everyone but I can say if our race car handled that well, (it had another couple hundred ponies) I would have been happy. It is a delight to drive.

Should have gone with the Subaru BRZ, same car, slightly cheaper price and free servicing.

Say, I'll tell you what Jaba. Next time I'm down there, you take the RV and I'll take the 86. We'll head to the same place, and we'll see who get's there in the fastest and most funnest way, .
