So the new owners came and picked me up this morning, and were kind enough to take me back to riverside (100 miles one way!) and during the trip we got to talk about different driving techniques and suggestions for best highway actions. And offroad and wherever else they wanna go. But good time together learning the new to them van!
And although i will see them again soon to pass along as much of my spare parts as i can, and to continue answering anything the can ask...here was the final goodbye today...:
