Hi all,

I'm still alive and well, aside from the occasional depression state that I go threw since my childhood days.
Not even my car crash could do me any harm, seems only Cyanide could prematurely take me out.
Knock on wood.
You'd be as surprised as I was to see what devastation a 1990 Chrysler minivan can cause.
65 - 75 feet of Armco-identical barrier had to be replaced, and as far as I remember, at least two H-style posts were SHEARED OFF.
Next time I'll run the fox over.
If I'd would have gotten it, the insurance would have paid for the car repair, . but now my minivan is definitely a write off, and my liability insurance paid thousands for some replacement barrier. Weirdly, the rental fee for the two traffic lights for three, four days was more expensive than the repair of the barrier.

Anywho, I might be going to the U.S. soon to do some travelling - at first, not GMC related - and I'm looking for a Pay-As-You-Go cell phone service including phone.

I know Tracfone, but they ask you for a zip code. I know what that is about, and I wonder if anyone could recommend an "Area-Free" service, meaning, that if you're traveling, nothing is local or long-distance, but cheap in general, preferably even international calls.
My aim is to have one or two phones, so I can stay in touch with my friend I'm traveling with, in case we get each out of each others' eyes when shopping or running into the town. You guys know what I mean?

Thanks for your help.

And I've been thinking about you all and about the GMC I don't yet have. Still thinking about the three-way gauge and replacing it with an LCD. Wouldn't you love that?
Seems some manufacturers like NEC and others are now making round LCDs' in about that size. Heard that someone is even making touch screens. I wonder if you all would love a touchscreen GMC gauge as much as I would. It could control anything, even provide navigation. Hopefully someday we'll all have an original looking touchscreen GMC.

Best wishes from Switzerland.

Dominik
