Default Calling it quits, sorta...

Ok, just as the title says. I've finally decided to take a transfer with the company I work for to China. Beijing will be our new home for at least the next three years. We just returned from our look and see and we managed to secured housing and bank accounts so our new adventure will begin jan 1st. I've thoroughly enjoyed this forum and the knowledge shared by everyone. I've learned so much about my car and made numerous friends that I will continue to keep in close contact with.
Now for the difficult part. I've decided to sell my car. It was a long hard decision but as much as I want to keep it I just can't imagine it sitting around for this long. My son could keep her exercised but I'm thinking he might be a little rough and over work her too much...
Once I sell her, I will most likely have some spare parts that I'll give notice to.
So many thanks again to everyone. Ah, I do plan to peak in from time to time!

Enjoy the time there. I'm glad we were able to meet up.


I should have had you pick up my GPS extension cable while you were visiting there.....I think it is on a slow boat from China

Ah yes, I will be keeping my eyes and ears open for potential sources while there. I am sure I won't find much at all in Beijing, but perhap in some of the smaller cities.

Tony, I'm glad to have met you. If you ever come back to NH/MA and need any help, please don't hesitate to ask.

Enjoy the time in China.

Thanks PCI and Booyaazaa. Actually I just canceled my trip to NH for next week but will go the following week. I think I'll have to grab a special NH maple syrup to take to China. Not sure if we will be able to get this nice fresh stuff over there!

Good luck overseas Tony. I haven't had the opportunity to meet you yet, but certainly appreciate your friendship and help. Don't be a stranger.
