Tom,

The Syncro is in Elsinore, UT.  That's somewhere between SLC and Las Vegas.
Seems like BFE to me...

If it were in SLC, I'd probably buy it!

Cheers,

Jeff

Hey Jeff,

LOL!

You must not get out much if youse think we are in BFE!
Way nicer than Sacramento?????  & our NBA team isn't as bad as yours?

If you take I-80, it is 150 miles shorter than Hiway 50 & they actually plow
the roads in Nevada & even in BFE Utah!

There are also gambling places  & brothels along the way in Nevada that
cater to old guys like youse!

I have already forwarded the link to a friendly vanagon & syncro hunter here
, Thanks for the link Ken, but he's got a syncro just like that one, that he
paid $400-500 for, IIRC.  Uses it on deep lite powder days to get up the
Canyon.

YMMV,

Mr. BZ-moving to BFE Maine soon
