       Well trying to find a replacement for the 93 century wagon. It's
plastic and interior are deteriorating and the drivetrain is going too. 150K
is hard on cars here cause of the heat. Not sure what the replacement will
be cause there isn't anything that can haul 4x8 sheets of ply or up to 16'
boards. Going to be some kind of SUV and GM has little to choose from. May
end up being a Fraud of some sort. Chrysler is not an option and definitely
not jeep as they are wiring nightmares which is unfortunate as a few fit the
criteria.

           Also got a few things to mess with on the elky and going to put
it on craigslist in the near future and see if there is any interest.
