Hi, my name is Bubba, and I'm a Big-Rig-aholic. I just sent Mr. Slick a check for my 3rd kit. I've pretty much built the 3rd truck and trailer already, but needed the wheels and extra long axles to finish her off. ...I was gonna stop at 2 (OK, so one has several different trailer configurations,...), but I had a truck concept that just wouldn't let me rest until I tried it. I thought building the latest one cured me, but as I was sitting outside the post office this morning preparing to fill in the amount on the check, the pen hovered over the amount line for a good 30 seconds as I struggled to decide whether to order just the 1 kit I needed for parts or maybe order 2 kits in case another idea came up? After a Herculean struggle (I'm typically much more decisive...), I finally managed to order just 1 more, but only because I figured that if I ordered 2 I'd never finish them all in time. Well, that and I can always order another one later. Someone please bring a straightjacket to Lima, or I'll probably bring home another kit or two from there... Bubba p.s. I have been consoling myself by considering this latest kit (and the trip to Lima) as a birthday present to me from Mrs. Bubba. Little trick I pull out when I'm over my Pinewood budget (money or time). I'm not sure, but that seems like a bad sign...

Congratulations on the self control! So. . . do you want me to bring some Big Rig kits to Lima?

So long as you agree not to sell me any!!! With any luck I'll have all 3 done in time for a nice display at Lima, right next to your remaining kit sale display
