James.... This has been done a couple of times now. But I'm proud that I've made it to 53. :lol: When I was 25 I would have bet against my chances on getting here. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Tell me about feeling old.....
My fully loaded 1973 Mustang Mach 1 had a sticker price of $4,400.00 I bought it for $4,000.00. There was a "gas war" going on in my home town when I bought that car. The first tank of gas cost me $1.50 - 15.2 gallons at $0.099 per gallon! But then that car only got about 12 mpg.....
Hopefully, by 2035 we will have figured out how to move ourselves around without needing gasoline.
But I will be 82, and my vehicle of choice will probably be an electric wheelchair. I wonder if it will have a decent sat/nav display as standard equipment?????
That is why I amk so glad that I have SSB #2476 today!!!!!!

Looks like I'm chronologically in one of the older age groups. Turned 57 on May 6th. It really sounds old doesn't it? However it certainly beats the alternative and I can say that older is absolutely better. As a 60's kid I'm just getting started. Each day is better than the last. I wasted too much valuable time in my youth worrying about junk. So here's to everyone's health, longevity, and many hours of xfire joy.
