Cool thread!!!!

Very interesting stories, but In my case I didn't choose to own a K/5 Jimmy, my Mom did in 1971. It saved our lives in 1972. In 2001 when Mom was having trouble getting up in to it at the age of 78 she gave it to me. It is my responsibility to take care of this family member now and I am slowly nursing the Jimmy back to health. My turn to save Jimmys life.

Later---DAC
