So my R&R is over and in a day or so I have to go back to S Korea. There is nothing that makes you realize how much you like the States and miss your family than living in a 3rd world country for a year.

Aside from a speedo cable that decided to break (easy fix at least) the new engine in the 72 is awesome. 430 hp/500 ft-lb 454 cu inch monster. I tried my best to be good with it but just once I kicked it into passing gear at 60 mph and it barked the tires when it upshifted. Thats just awesome.
 
Man you're going back into a really scary situation between the two Koreas. South is smug knowing it has the full backing of the good ole' US
of A. The North has a crazy dictator. Two many itchy trigger fingers.

Stay safe. Watch your 12 and your six and everything else in between.
