Thanks, Rob. Nothing sounds better than an in-line six. When they're turning slow enough to count the strokes, even better. I could listen to it all day. Regards, Bob

Re: Took the pre-T out for a drive today on a beautiful afternoon.
Rob- What a beautiful video! I've commented in the past about my preference for Model T (...and "pre-T") videos without music, as I for one prefer to hear "antique car engine noise" exclusively! Of course, there are those that welcome tasteful and appropriate accompanying music. Well, I just wanted to comment that I think you have struck a perfect "happy medium" with that video, and I have enjoyed it very much! (...several times) A favorite Abraham Lincoln quote says it quite well,....."You can please some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time". I believe that your video you just posted comes about as close to a "perfect compromise" as humanly possible, and I for one, really, REALLY, appreciate your very professional efforts!!! Just my thoughts for what it's worth,....BEAUTIFUL VIDEO ROB!!! Thanks so much for making and posting that video Rob,......harold

Re: Took the pre-T out for a drive today on a beautiful afternoon.
Rob,....can't believe you'd do that "just for me"! Totally unnecessary Rob,....I was serious when I said that I feel that your video (...even with nice music ) struck a perfect "happy medium! Not to get "too gushy here", but all your videos are very memorable! To back that up, even an 80-year-old guy like me with failing memory, has a vivid memory of another favorite of mine,... the video you made of you, driving the Model K, being filmed and followed by the "drone/GoPro" from a couple hundred feet up in the air! Thanx again,.....harold

Re: Took the pre-T out for a drive today on a beautiful afternoon.
Another fantastic video Rob! The Kat's meow. Thank ya sir!
Harold, I'm right there with ya! The balance is real close.
Doggone it, I watched the video without the music but NOW I need to find the Casey Jones song by Johnny Cash.
