Hi Benji

Welcome Bud.
Show us your ride ! :gotpics:

You are going to smile and smile and smile more with your Patrol.
Ask any question on here, the brotherhood will answer. The collective knowledge here is astounding!

OH yes , we never talk about fuel economy here, that's a no-no !
Have you put in leave from the 20th of September yet?

:welcomewave:

Cheers
