Re: [Chrysler300] To B

["johnl" <john@xxxxxxxxx>]

Martha and Mick,

Congrats on arriving at a new level.  I know you will both have many years of enjoyment from the B and I hope that in the years to come you feel the way I do about ours.

Last,  I hope the first time Martha takes it for a drive the smile is as big as it was when she drove our T&C at the Tahoe meet.
