Rich retired guys, huh? I've got so many things flying around my head with that comment that I'm bound to make someone mad or offended with my reply if I start. Suffice it to say that once you attain that point in life I expect you'll realize how many ways that sentence is wrong. Best of luck with the decisions on the drive train for the '40. I hope that it meets all of your expectations for both power and economy.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

I wasn't trying to ruffle any feathers with that. I typed that with a smile, I just figured since mileage isn't a concern that money can't be either.
Mileage isn't my main concern on it, but i'd like to try to make it the best I can considering what it is. I hope I'm rich when I retire but at the rate my SS is going, I for sure won't have that so I'll have to rely on what ever I provide myself. My last SS statement says I can't draw until I'm 72 and I've been putting in since I was 13. I'm not waiting to retire at 72 for sure. I doubt the descion will meet all my expectations because it'll never be done if you know what I mean.
