Ryan, thanks for the tip. That one is a bit pricey for my needs, but I did find this Garmin Dash Cam 20
that is a mid-priced unit with really good reviews - http://www.bestbuy.com/site/garmin-d...&skuId=3939015

Thanks for the input! I ended up buying the 20. The comments were true - the power cord is too short. I do not like having a wire hang down from the mirror to the dash, so I plan to install a mini Add-A-Fuse to hard wire the unit up the A-pillar and behind the headliner. It should make for a much cleaner installation, and by picking a key-on circuit the unit will power up and off with the ignition key.

For those of you who are not friends with me on FB, the caption read as follows -
"Ugh! The cashier didn't even ask - she just gave it to me. On the plus side, I saved 42 cen... Wait! There is no plus side to this."  For the record, I am still (barely) in my 40s!

Jack has finished up his Freshman year at the College of Charleston (SC), and is now taking a 3-week "Maymester" session for 3 credits. Since he now has >30 credits, he can get a parking permit, so he has his 89 Ranger down there. He called last night to say that the truck had died at CookOut. It was a bit more difficult for me to diagnose the issue since the truck is 610 miles away. He had left the lights on a couple of days ago, and needed a jump. I figured the battery was not able to recover, so he walked a short distance to AdvancedAuto, borrowed a wrench (his toolbox is MIA!), and successfully replaced his dead battery. It's nice to know the boy could get himself out of a jam.
The reason I bring this up is because the battery was dated December 2004. Yup, the thing was 11 years old! Absolutely amazing...

I love when things like this happens...
A young man stops in the shop today to get a quote on repairing the cowl on his 89 Mustang coupe. He had just picked it up from south GA and was having it tuned and was starting to get ready to make it more appealing to the eyes. After looking the damage over I grabbed the Vin # to start the estimate. The vin # Caught my attention so I looked it up in our Vin Project... There it was a 1989 FHP. I asked if he knew what it was and he replied that he was told it was a 4cly conversion car... When I showed him his car in the Vin Project and that it was a FHP he was super excited !!! He now plans to repaint her back in the black and tan and slowly restore it back... It is a good feeling to see a young person get so excited and hooked on our beloved SSP's... Hopefully he'll be joining up soon...
