Naw, I don't think I'm old, its those danged grandkids who keep tellin' me I am! Speakin' o' which, they're comin' to see me tonight! I promised the Road Dog to the oldest grandson when he shows he's RESPONSIBLE enough to maintain and drive it (he's eight right now), the 58 goes to the youngest when HE's old & responsible enough! They already love VW's!
