Ohh, and its "In Stock" too, I hate it when you order a one-off aircraft carrier and it's out of stock or on back-order. :r

I'm thinking the R 400F Snowblower would make driveways a snap this winter.

Wonder if they could ship it in time for Christmas. Hmmmmm....

Did anyone get as much of a kick out of the "compare" button as I did?

Obviously the best deal on the site. 84 pounds for a tire iron.

I'll take the harrier instead. I've always wanted a VTOL.

It's nice but nothing mentioned about the arsenal it carries or how many miles 007 put on it.

You can try stork3268@aol.com he may be able to build you one.

My mistake I thought you wanted to buy one.
