That's nuthin', I just turned 47. I'm getting so old, I hope I can remember my wife's 25th birthday next month.

I just got this...it either makes up for some physical shortcoming I have, or my male pattern baldness...
Yes...it has a HEMI.

Ronn, you got me beat. My wife's only 21 years younger than me.

Chris, how do you like it? how does it go? how is it on gas? and do you think two SVT cabs and an upright would fit in it along with a few Rics?
I'm thinking of getting one of those too.

Which raises the question: what is the ultimate Ricmobile?
A Rolls? A VW bug? A Ferrari? A Hummer?

Hey Bob,
I love that Magnum. 340hp...it goes pretty fast.
It's not too bad on gas if you don't romp on it (which is admittedly hard to do). When you're cruising it has a system that allows the engine to only run on 4 cylinders until you accelerate hard & activate the other four. Pretty nice feature. It has Sirius satellite radio too - to which now I am completely hooked.
Last night was the first "load in" I've done with it. I dunno how 2 8x10's would fare, but last night I got my Yorkville head (in a rack), matching 15" cabinet, gig bag, G&L ASAT & Rick 4003 in there with a good amount of room to spare.
I'd say you could probably get one 8x10 in there, along with your other gear as well.

The best Ricmobile is a Woodie! Dale Fortune and I each have one which we restored. Here's mine:

Nice flame...

Surely the Nissan Ced-RIC would be the most appropriate!

Aitch...that's so ugly it's beautiful!

Chris, LOLOLOLOL.
Here are some detail shots of the wood flame on the drivers' door and door lock area:
