Nice MIJ. Thanks for sharing. Those V70s are immaculate. I'm sure Japan is too, generally speaking (roads, homes, shopping areas etc.)?

Oh and by the way, that's a Honda NSX a few posts up (at least that what they're named here in the US), and the Honda engineers went as far as making the jack out of aluminum to save weight.

Very cool! Yeah, the Honda was nice....thank for the info....and yes, everything is extremely clean over in Japan.

Actually they are known as Acura NSX

I live out in Karns on Ball Camp Pike. About a 1/4 mile off Oak Ridge Highway. They are building the Schaad Road extension right behind my house. It will connect up with Lovell Road.
It would be cool to get together sometime.

Here is a picture of my ride. Maybe you have seen it running down the road sometime.

Hey Larry,
I think I have seen that piece of property before...but not your wagon. I used to frequent the Knoxville Golf Course there on Schad Rd.
We live in Fountain City, just above the duck pond. here are our rides:

It's always Christmas at our house!
