Well... we made it home safe and sound from our trip to the north west. Had a great time. Glad we opted to take the cheap new 240 rather than the 122... just a lot more secure feeling. Although the dried hard leather drivers seat was rather like sitting on a sheepskin covered cinder block... especially after the about 3600 miles travelled.

Only car issue we had was my fault... When I swapped tires from my other car, I neglected to clean the wheels. Lets just say a couple pounds of dust and mud caked in each wheel can really throw the balance off. About 4 stops to scrape mud, and one stop at a car wash mostly took care of the shake.

Phil, Cameron... was great meeting you both. Sorry I didn't get a chance to catch some of you other folks out there. There will surely be a next time...
