Larry, I listened to lots of great music, too several old US highways when I tired of the interstates, and drove at 4000 rpm's and 50~55 mph (80 kph) the whole way. In retrospect though, I should have tried to buy a flat-bed truck, or truck and dolly, to haul it home, and then sold the truck here. Glad I made it, a very tiring drive. Karl
