Christmas carols before bed

Thanks everyone, I'm looking for options too, GV seems to be the way to go. The 69 GTX has the super track pack, 4.10s, the original 833 has been replaced by a well-built 727. For those who have a stall with a 727, is there trans slippage while cruising? Arizona Interstates 75mph plus, and high...

I served in a high Agent Orange spray area, in 2023, three of us Vietnam vets who served in AO spray areas were diagnosed with aggressive mouth cancer during a 6-week time period, one of us did not survive.
