Re: Trojan Jones Act Restrictions

No, but of course I would get that if I went through with this, at least the six pack. I'm not really considering it but was told if I did I can't with a Canadian made vessel.

Re: Considering Another with Detroit Diesels

Re: Trojan Jones Act Restrictions

Considering Another with Detroit Diesels

Hide? What are some considerations on start up and eval? ...
