LoL "Only in Texas" Thanks `Keane, fun thread & Fast Caddy & Camaroo I think people who buy these machine should have special training to drive these Monster Cars..
I don't think anyone with just Big $'s should be able to buy one & get out on the roads we are on without some type of training...I know I'd be dangerous out there `if I had one 4-Sure (LOL)

p.s. I do like that Caddy...
