Welcome. My wife and I have said many times if we were to win the lotto we would retire to Seaside Oregon. I am not sure if you are familiar with this town or how close you are to it. I think he might be against t-tops as they can leak.

That's a good choice. My roommate in the army had a new 82gt and a friend had an 83 gt. They were both nice. Ever been to Seaside. We went through 14 years ago so I think it has probably grown somewhat.
