    Too wet to detect, so....

    Hey everyone!
    Been so much rain the past couple months the ground has been saturated and waterways flooded. Also been working a ton of extra days which seem to fall on the few sunny days. So with a few extra dollars from the overtime, I did a little shopping and ended up with a new ride as of Monday. Thought i would share for the other car enthusiasts here.

    Got a great deal on a "used" 2018 Mustang GT with under 1K miles on it. Still had the protective film and tags from the factory!

    Saturday is supposed to be nice, and was invited by the president of the local Mustang club to attend their car show, meet the other members, and possibly join. Should be a great day!

    Thanks Tony! And yes, its fast- they upped the HP in '18 to 465. And certainly more fun than having muck up to my knees like my last detecting trip.

    Wondering if I'm filming the wrong stuff? Detecting video gets a few views, and a 2 minute car show video gets a couple hundred between YouTube and Facebook first day. Go figure
