``Hope I die before I grow old`` and I almost did. I`m enjoying my retirement but I dodged the bullet, so far. But you have to prepare for your retirement so it pays to start early, imo. You can not escape getting old but you can enjoy yourself on the way and once you get their.

This forum seemed to hit a wall somewhere along the route and is having a tougher time recovering than SammyJL, no offence Sam, you recovered very well after your wall encounter.

Still having tons of fun at the track.
Hey Ian,
Thinking of taking it easier or is the current government going to retire as well?

Hi Ian
The Old Farts club could use some fresh beans. On your way back from TO with the Hyper Blacks, consider stopping for a bite as you pass by. Love to see em on or off.

Lol, I was going to do that also, especially retiring at 52, but I got too busy with fishing, boating, travelling, fish hatchery involvement, family and all the other things that go along with retirement

Sam, you just had to go there, didn't you? LOL I don't even want to think about that day ever again. I've blocked it out of my memory. What Wall? ....

I'm driving a 2012 Murano now with my G35 still in the stable. Can't believe that I still have her, but I'm glad that I do.

Not anywhere near thinking about retiring yet. Too many bills to pay.

More than 35 bills (wink, wink)?
You still da Man, Sam, I'll never mention the "w" word again. Your G is still one of the nicest that I've seen. I plan on keeping mine for a looooooooong time. Just love the look and ride of it.
Having said that, I've promised Nan, that if Tesla comes out with an affordable SUV in 2017 as planned I'd let'er go. The G, not the wife.
The idea of not being tied to the gas companies is very appealing.

Great to see you too Ian. Your car is looking great as usual and that exhaust you have now sure has a growl to it.
