    If so, think we could all get together for a mini meet at the same time? (Moncha, pbkid, MSH, Bim, vxDAKINECHICK, driver3, fuzzy, etc., etc., etc.) Hmmm... Just a thought...

    Bart/biju,

    That would be a blast! If Bart makes it down to Denver, definitely give me a call/shoot me an e-mail. It's always fun to get together with the fam.

    Bart,

    I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this one, as it's probably the number one cause of major problems in VX'es... OIL! Bring a few quarts of your favorite oil, preferably a good synthetic of the proper specs. I've noticed the oil consumption problem, if you have it, to get especially bad on long road trips. Check your oil every time you stop and keep it topped off. Letting it get low is very, very bad!

    Good luck in Reno. I've only been there once, and it seemed kind of sleepy for my taste, but I'm a big city guy at heart. Would have been a great place to retire were it not for all the development...
