Jacob, you and JY have both been extremely giving to me over the past 2.5 years - I really appreciate it.  The forum's a nice place to be (for the most part ;D).

i know what you mean... while i come in here to kill some time while at work and still feel it is my me time... it really is helpful. i get to keep my finger on the pulse of the auto world... hear from drivers/buyers what features actually matter, what the general consensus is toward certain models/brands, etc... learn the things that turn off the majority of buyers at "stealerships" and the such...

anyway, good to have you on board... glad you see you pulled a canadia bird and have hung around. good on ya!

You suck, Black. 

Needed to temper the love party a bit.   ;D

I'm glad to see this forum is still a thing.
When I see a new link to an article, if I see it's from J.B. I will make a point to read it - because I know it will be a good read with a bit of humor mixed in.

Thanks, man!  Appreciate what you do.    :thumbup:

Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.
