I'm still *flo[[oing* back and forth on what to do about a new boat.
I can get one that satisfy the wife and i or spring another $5 or 6 k
and get something a bit bigger (might be *usefull* if future *grandkids*
come along)
Trouble is, I'd also have to upgrade to a more powerful tow *vehicke* . I
have an appointment tomorrow at 1300 hrs with the local Toyota
dealer.
They'll appraise my 3 year old car and we'll take the 6 *cyl* RAV4 out
for a test run.
This could get expensive ;-)


A few mistakes in your post. Can you spot 'em?

Keep what you have for a while and save up for that new shiny toy.
Don't take baby steps. You won't be happy in the end. ;-)

Blame the errors on my Blackberry Playbook. More awkward to use than
my desktop keyboard.

*Oscar* is offering up "corrections"? Now that's a giggle. The high
point of his entire life was a stint in the navy and that was over for
him decades ago.
