Man! That's a solid guess. To be honest, I had no idea parr's of Texas looked like this until I moved to San Antonio. The Texas Hill Country is amazing!

And, thanks for the compliments, Brian! I love photography, even though I'm the biggest amateur.

Beautiful car, beautiful country. If I had not already read that it was south Texas I would've definitely said Santa Fe New Mexico area.

Actually, Ruben is lying.  He just took it from a Geico ad.

Ruben:
What is the tach reading on the freeway with the 389s? We all may need to show up in Fredricksburg some weekend.

Good question.  I removed the original transmission and put in a T-5.  So, I'm only reading about 2,100 RPM at 70 MPH.   ;)

A trip to Fredricksburg would be fantastic!  I head up there from time to time, and the drive from San Antonio (via back roads) is superb.

LOL I once took the 15 minutes test. 15 minutes that I would never get back. They wanted TWICE what I was already paying for car insurance. Great pics of your car!
