Congrats, and welcome to the forum!

Quitting smoking is no easy feat, and any excuse to buy a Cheyenne is a good one. :mrgreen:

Welcome Adam, and congrats on the quitting smoking! At least now we know you'll be around here MUCH longer now! I did it 7 years ago too. I was spending $2800 a year on the nasty habit. Easy math lesson too. That's a new Rick or more every year! Can't argue with that logic..... :lol: You'll love the bass but be warned. Ricks are also a nasty habit that won't be as easy to give up. Multiple Ricks are in your future!

Habit? Yes. Highly addictive? Absolutely! Nasty? Well, I sure wouldn't put it that way...

If you're planning on replacing one habit with another, you've come to the right place.

Aware of exchange one addiction for another? - Interesting person!

Our common addiction here is less stigmatised in general. On stage it is even a benefit!

I am sure You won't regret the change.
