Crazy story. Never can be too safe.

Thanks Wade! I have seen your build man you have some serious talent too.
And yes, I can't wait to be cruising this thing. I just don't have the time I used to when we didn't have kids. Hope to get some good weather soon.

I probably should have put some jackstands under there but it was jacked up and I did quickly find out where park was before it ever started.
