Personally, I don't think that is it at all. Rudy has been around longer than most and has done things others, including Josh, have not done. I know you are hot on a 55K conversion, but to date, you have not accomplished one 100%, please correct me if I am mistaken - while Rudy has a minimum of 3 under his belt (plus several other crazy MB builds including the worlds only AWD C230 swapped with SRT6 drivetrain). We have all watched many people come before you and tell us that they can do it all, only to fade away into oblivion.

You are the exception to the rule, you have actually stuck it out and gotten results, some amazing ones, IMO. But keep in mind, for many of us that have been here several years (or closer to a decade for a few) Rudy has been the only real constant in this game. Everyone told him he could not do it when he first began as well, but he proved them wrong the same way you currently are. I see Rudy as IBM and you as Google, IBM has been around a lot longer and is capable of some pretty amazing stuff, but google is young, adaptive and is always brainstorming something new. Both amazing companies that do groundbreaking stuff, but different in their own ways. Keep it up!
