Larry, glad to hear you are back on the road again, courtesy of many
list members/vangon owners. There are many of us who are on that trip
with you in heart, mind and spirit if not in person.

Tell me again - I am at a loss here - with all the writeups about how
fine your Syncro is, and given your history with the machine and the
sentimental attachment one develops with such things when creating that
history ....... Why sell it off????

Wishing you the best o the remainder of your trip....

Regards,

John Rodgers
