Well at least you got me to enter Desotoland.
Been a Desoto driver again since Friday when I got the 48 Suburban out of
storage. Boy its neat to have it going again for a while. Still just
barely has 16,000 miles on it even with the weekends foolishness. Had it
since Easter of 83 so time to play again.
Its actually running stronger than I remembered it did. For a nine
passenger vehicle with a flathead six the expectations aren't too high
actually!!!
