Give me strength LOL - David Scott - 02-19-2006 18:24
I went to the site where the 3 BBC [not Wanderlodge right?] are
listed; #584 $319K, #594 $288K and #552 $89K
The first 2 #584 and #594 both are called Wanderlodges in the
description #552 is called a Wide Body Pusher
Now I'm dizzy and getting a headache oy'
