Nothing like a B-52 takeoff or flyby. When I was young, living in Portland, we used to get to watch the B-52's takeoff and land out of Tacoma, Washington because of the Cold War rotation of Nukes. It was cool.
Not sure if I posted this before. Bay Shore(next to Bay Harbor) was a electronic bombing practice. It was a everyday occurrence to see the B52 flying very low across Lake Charlevoix.
The Transit full size is built in the US, rear wheel drive. The Transit Connect is built in Europe, front wheel drive. No 4x4, we have not had a AWD since the Aerostar, ugly thing, but very tough van.
