Default Road Trip !!

Heading up to Montreal to buy either a 2000 Disco or a 99 Disco as a parts truck. Got a good buddy going with me as it is about a 9 hr drive. Should be a blast.

I hoped you saved enough money on the trip. Buying a vehicle and then getting it towed costs alot in money and other things.

I hope the costs were worth it.
