This is true. The Great Pumpkin has a definite shot.

The Cosmo came from a field! We put the engine in Monday, and drove out Wednesday. It had less than 100 miles on it, and then went on a fantastic voyage!!

I do have heat though
I'm sure I could do it. Would need bluetooth speaker and some earplugs though. Just nervous about the car breaking down in the middle-of-nowhere, NC.

I think he still has me beat in the looks department. I've got a good "10-20 ft" car.

What is this "Great Pumpkin" or did my car just earn its name?

I take it you're not a "Peanuts" aka "Charlie Brown" comics fan. The Great Pumpkin was Linus' Halloween creation in lieu of Santa Claus. The Great Pumpkin was supposed to rise up from the pumpkin patches around the world and ride across the sky bringing toys and candy to all the good little boys and girls. Unfortunately Linus was the only one lying out in the pumpkin patch at night waiting for him. :le sigh:

^This. Parked next to my FC at DGRR, we'll have that orange & black Halloween vibe going!

FYI, the DGRR website says as of this morning there are 80 folks registered, and FC's have the lead with 18 coming down.
