You have a Benz brain, so running Benz or not, you should come and share your knowledge.

I like Astros too.

lol, will do. I might be able to talk my way into a 123 240 just in case. However, August is long enough away that the PA GTG makes for a excellent date to have a running 115 ready to make the trip.

I might start my PanAmerican journey at Benzfest! I can just make it to Pennsylvania to leave the US before my legal status changes!

Completely awesome news. I hope it all works out.

Yes, it would be great to see you again before you embark on your journey! We can bust a bottle of champagne on the bumper or something like that . . .

That sounds like some kind of an ominous diagnosis by a neurologist . . . "I'm sorry Mr Jones, but the tests came back and they indicate the you have 'Benz Brain.' There's very little we can do now except to try and make you as comfortable as possible . . . "

We can start at 11am and go until whenever. I'll provide burgers, hotdogs, chicken, and grilled veggies along with a few cases of beer, soda, and water. Feel free to add anything to that menu since I won't be getting any chips or sides. My budget for this year is a bit smaller than previous years, but it will still be a great time.

Let's get a head count so I can plan for the food and drink.

I live about 1 mile from the Montgomery Mall to give you an idea of where I am. I'm between Allentown and Philadelphia. I'll give my address via PM to everyone that will be coming.

For me either a 74 240D (if finished in time), if thats not finished, maybe an 82 240D (if I can borrow it).

If I can't borrow anything, im afraid it will be an 86 diesel jetta and a cloak of disgrace.

There's no disgrace in a german diesel!!!! It's even the same era.

I'm going to pass my wagon on to a new owner and replace it with a T4, hopefully with a weekender package.

Is the Mistress going to come up with you, Tom?

I guess I can shake the sand off my feet & make the trip up Chad.
Haven't seen you all since BF I. Really, has it been 5 years?
Put me and the Red Baron down as a 70/30 go.
