Hello again

Hello again old friends. Sorry I've been away so long, but we've all got our day jobs . Anyway... I'm sad to say, I'm putting my Hybrid fleet up on the auction block. I'll post details in the 4Sale forum. Just wanted to give the old-timers a heads up and a quick Hi before I posted.

All is well with me, and my family. Still love the Hybrids and wouldn't sale them, if it could be avoided. We are at a point in our lives where we've decided to cash in all tangible assets, pay off our house, and hold on to cash for a while.

In any case... hope all is going well for you guys as well.

Dan <11011011>

Re: Hello again

Hi Dan! Welcome back! Sorry to hear that the "fleet" is for sale. I know how things can change. I work in a job/industry that I thought I would retire at. The current government has put the lively hood of many in jeopardy.

Re: Hello again

I'm glad to see you here again, Dan! I hope it all works out for you and the family -- it's a rough market out there.

Re: Hello again

Thank you. Yes, we've managed very well. I'm just seeing a lot of my friends fight through tough times, and the "downsizing" effort is the hardest part. Thought best to do that while I don't have other things going on.

-Dan

Re: Hello again

Are you planning to replace these with cheaper vehicles? Or are you just culling them from a larger fleet?
