Taking advantage of an unseasonably cool day in southern Arizona, I took the 400 out for a drive. Destination: Patagonia Arizona (R/T 140 miles) and the Paton Hummingbird Center.
I have been going to the Paton home in Patagonia for many years now. In the birding world, it is a 'must-do' on any serious bird watcher's itinerary. I was greeted by my favorite hummingbird once again. The Violet-crowned never disappoints. Note that violet crowned hummingbirds dress alike. What? Yes, violet crowned hummers, male and female, are colored similarly unlike other hummingbirds. This area of Arizona is known famously for high hummingbird diversity. I personally cannot imagine living anywhere hummingbirds are not found. Oh, and the Packard? She once again drove wonderfully (I kept her at 65 MPH most of the way) and turned heads everywhere. Prior to returning to Tucson, I stopped for an adult beverage at the Wagon Wheel. Or maybe I had two.....not important. To prove the 400 was the center of attraction, just take a look at the Northern Cardinal's expression when I pulled in. Priceless!

To each their own I guess. I draw the line however at the place where one loses sight of the brand's original design intent.

Concur with Brian's post about cleaning rear of my 400. I only do such cleaning when alone, as I don't wish to emotionally scar anyone while removing myself. There are times I wish I had a Patrician too.

I have purchased many items from Steele over the course of my restoration. I'm satisfied with the quality. BTW. If you order Steele merchandise through Max Merritt you get a 10% discount.

Can one be both delusional and drunk at the the same time? Yes indeed. Saw it many times in 30 plus years of public service. Unrealistic expectations.

I'm happy the Panther is moving forward for you. Looking towards seeing it in person when I drop by again.
