New to Bluebird

[magnus caeruleus avis]

FYI: One great thing about BB owners, we are all a cohesive group, eager to
share thoughts and opinions, agree to disagree as gentlemen (and ladies) and
always ready to help one another. I don't believe you will find a better
"fraternity" among the owners of any other brand of motorcoach.

Now, as a side, I was at W.W. Williams in Birmingham, Alabama just a few months
ago, and low and behold there was a whole pile of brand new 8v92s still in the
crates that were being prepared for shipment and installation by Uncle Sam at
the Anniston Army Depot in Anniston Alabama. This give credance to what I
learned in the Army, (probably much exaggerated of course)a DD 2 stroke can be
shot up and damaged almost beyond repair and a good mechanic (and there are
plenty of those guys still around) can get it to where you can get home.
Probably nostalgia, but I have been told that had it not been for the DD 2
stroke, we would all be speaking German or Japanese today.
