Hi `Tadd, I can relate 4-Sure...I grew up on a boat @ sea & I think that is why I can sleep anywhere @ anytime...I do love sleeping on a boat as long as there's not violent storms that knock you `off the boat...That's happened to me a few times...For unknown reason, they fished me outa the sea (lol)... There's not much or any personal space on the ships I've been on 4-Real..

RM Auctions
This 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 sold for $27.5 million on Saturday.
Amidst a host of other multimillion-dollar sales on the Monterey Peninsula of California this weekend, the 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 N.A.R.T. Spider sold by RM Auctions for $27.5 million has become, according to RM, the second most expensive car ever to be sold at auction — and the most expensive Ferrari ever to cross the block.
Being one of 10 special North American Racing Team convertibles, this Italian beauty was bound to fetch a high price, which the auction house had estimated would fall between $14 million and $17 million.
Last year’s Best of Show winner at the Pebble Beach concours, a 1928 Mercedes-Benz 680S Torpedo Roadster, was sold by RM Auctions for $8.25 million.
A 1931 Bentley 4 1/2 liter Supercharged Le Mans was sold Friday by Bonhams for $4.65 million

Haha I watch Chasing Classic Cars all the time and those people at auctions spend 100k+ like it's nothing. The exotic and rare cars are interesting to see though.
Hi `Matt,
I just don't understand it how people pay that much for a vehicle, but I'm happy that they can to preserve the history of vehicles like this...I just couldn't store a car & just look @ it....I would have to drive it...Could you imagine driving a $27+million dollar ride on the public streets
Not on the crazy roads that I drive on here in Florida...I would be nervous just starting it and moving it in storage...I think it would be great to be able to buy anything, but the people Ive met that seem to have everything, never seem to be really happy.
I don't have much, but I'm happy 4-Sure....
Wish all a great afternoon, & thanks for all your contributions to the MCF
