Brian1045 28 #1 Posted September 27, 2009 After talking with Stephen (Rollerman) over the course of a couple weeks. I decided to head North to check out his RJ-58. It was a 4 hr. drive I decided to take on alone. I loaded up the cd player, jumped in the pick-up and took off. I had an awesome trip by myself, eating, singing with the radio, some more eating, etc. but I am easily entertained. I'm not big on the fancy GPS's..So with the good ole trip odometer and Google maps I made it with no problem. Stephen showed me his collection of some sweet a** Wheel Horses. We rolled out the RJ fired her up and that's all I needed. She's mine! We chit-chatted for a bit and I decided to head out before it got to dark on me. I did hit a pretty good lightning and rain storm 1 hr. from home...but it was very calming and a good way to end a trip. It was very nice to meet you Stephen and I enjoyed myself very much. The RJ will be very well taken care of. I look forward to chatting with you again one day. Thanks again! Here's a couple of pics after unloading and putting her in the garage: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brian1045 28 #4 Posted September 27, 2009 Thanks fellas! Since I just got laid off from my job , I figured I would buy myself something I've always wanted... to celebrate being broke and jobless in the near future.. I'll have plenty of time on my hands before I go back to school in January. I'll be sitting at home on my butt till then. So I'll definitely have time to tinker with it. :hide: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rollerman 290 #5 Posted September 27, 2009 Wow Brian your garage looks so clean & probably much better organized than mine. It was good to meet you & glad you found the RJ worthy of 8 hours of driveing. Brian you also struck me as a sharp & motivated person.....won't be to long before you find something.
