Joined: July 2004 Posts: 766 Location: New Hampsha | Never having sent anything to Mother, I appreciate the input. I was leaning toward the '97 myself, but wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something that made the '93 more desirable. Are you limited to original configuration, or can you opt for a burst or bling? I hope so, as I don't care for natural tops. I am the odd man out (again), as I like the stealth electronics. | ||
