Travis, great to see you in here! We were very happy to do the repairs. It was nice to finally see everything get fixed up the way it should be.
Really looking forward to seeing what you have been doing to the Patrol!
Hope you have a great trip!

Just one more note from Colombia...
We always heard that the countryside is where you find most of the Patrols. But we have never seen as many Patrols as we did in Cartagena, which is Colombia's fifth largest city. Up there, they use the Patrols as a means of public transportation. They are literally everywhere!
One day eating lunch at a small restaurant, we sat for 15 minutes and took pictures of every Patrol that passed by... This is how many there are:
(it was kinda difficult eating lunch while taking the pictures)

haha... that's crazy... kind of like playing a game of "slug bug" in the US, whenever you see a Volkswagon
your arm would be sore after spotting that many Patrols...

Thank YOU! Well, you know the fame comes with the car so we're all out of luck now...
But we are definitely returning to the States at some point. So, looking forward to taking a closer look at that Patrol graveyard of yours
Will bring beer! So long
