Probably not choices slowforty. It came in your DNA and runs through your veins, just like the rest of us! LOL

Sometimes it skips a generation. Some of my earliest memories are about old cars. My dad was a marine insurance broker, worked downtown in a suit and drove base-line second hand plymouths. I distinctly remember telling him at about 12 ys old that I was gonna buy an old bobtail semi tractor and mount a pickup box on it someday. In school I drew hot rods and trucks hidden by my open book. But my grandpa and great grandpa, both of whom I never met were wheeled pioneers. Grandpa, Benjamin Bailey Sisson owned and operated Sisson's Garage, the Ford agency in Wareham Ma , and his dad Harvey Handy Sisson ran a livery stable in West Harwich Ma, on Cape Cod and ran a stage coach line between there and Boston.

Man, you wound up about as far away as you can GET, from Massachusetts!

My folks were the runaways. They moved to Seattle in 1947 and I was born there in 1953. There is still a 'Sisson's Corner' in West Harwich.
