More then one vehicle I've owned has gone up that driveway and not come back. This is not going to be one of those stories!! And yes we are talking fully functional! I'll even be able to turn around in the Mall parking lot without breaking an axle :D . 5 years isn't bad considering my known history!
Of course without everyones help(Jose in peticular) i'd still looking 5 more years down the road.
