After two lower back surgeries I do love my "slushboxes"!

Have to say "Congrats, man!" Is a blessing that you have two young sons that are handy and like mechanics. These days youngers only want to hang out and play video games. I wish some day my two kids are like yours...God Bless America!!! (Damn is about time he do!)
