Thanks Eric & Scott for the info.  This will give me some ideas of what & where to look for problems as I investigate used vs. new (even at a dealership).  I need to be realistic in what I want & can spend to make this transition.

LOL  That would only put me 1/32 of the way closer!

NICE....I love the "clear out" so nice to have all that crap/stuff gone. My wife is a dual garage sale/"oh I thought we could use it" person. I have the local salvation army on speed dial for pick up!

My dad was a collector.  He had a use for it all and became THE ONE to go to when you needed something metal fabricated or modified.  He had at least 5 lifetimes of projects around the property.  It was time for it to move out a bit.  We joje that the removal of all this stuff from the property will cause a local earthquake becaus ethe plate can finally move

I always have my 2 Pungo's.  It's like fishing old school!  Love it!  No rod holders, no FF, no GPS, no compass, no livewell, no milk crate & no place to pee!
