    When we switched over I was pleasantly surprised, but sometimes I miss the sound of the 998 .

    Welcome from one time Rapid City residents - we lived in Chapel Valley. My bride was the Transportation Squadron commander at Ellsworth AFB during the early 1990s; I on the other hand was already in the USAF retired category.

    Rapid City in our opinion is one of the best kept secrets in the U.S. but don't tell anyone. Oh, and spring isn't that far off. June is only six months away!

    Yes, 2017 RTL SE6 is a great machine. Now, it is high time to fall in love with accessorizing your new spyder. So much to learn here from this group.

    Merry Christmas!

    I don’t think they lost any occupied structures here. Feel for all those that lost homes in Cally

    Default Merry Christmas to you and all

    Congrats on your new RT. Thinking about upgrading my 2014 but cannot see much different
    Replaced my Lamonster Certified RT Limited #1874 With a 2018 RTL.
