Thanks for the offer and if I get this other truck I looked at today I
will come up and get anything you want to toss. Otherwise my van has
just about had it when it comes to long trips. I if you have any
internal parts left let me know as I just looked at these units today
and they have been picked clean inside.

3xCS1H, 1xSystem3, 1xZ2, BRZII, C5 etc., and nice and clean at that),
will probably have to go as well 'cause nobody wants to come up here to
the frozen north, the cards, manuals & software may be around a little
longer, so let me know if ya need anything.
