Today is April 15, 2023.
I put in my reitrement papers effective July 1, 2023. ?We're going to get a vintage (2002 to 2010 model) Airstream and tour the country visiting family for a couple years.
Our 2002 NFE bought October 25, 2002 has 338,450 miles. ?Yes it still has it's original puke green interior. ?We are however going to swap out the Supercharged 6.0 Escalade motor we put in back in '15 and drop in an 8.1 I've had sitting in the shop for the past couple years. ?The wife has been nagging me to finally do something with the parts Av's and EXT's that are lying about the property. ?So I'll start cataloging and putting these things on the board as see if anyone needs some Av or EXT pieces.
But Seriously....
We did buy our '02 NFE 10/25/02 and it has 39,700 on it. ?It needs new rear brakes, and we have been fortunate in not having any reliability issues. ?We change the oil every 5K with a AC Delco PF 59, one quart of Lucas and five quarts of 5W30 that I picked up on sale somewhere - always a name brand oil, not store or off brand stuff. ?The driveline service was done at 26K and plan on doing the next one at 50K.
