Thanks for that. Ya, when applying the word "traditional" to our immediate situation, it's something each of us look at from our time in the hobby, clearly some newer than others. Even in 10 years from now I'm sure it will be amazing what is out there. I don't think folks saw how far it would come (for better and worse) 10 years ago, but that can be said for a lot of things, mostly tech based. I'm only into electric now, and the batteries today versus 10 years ago are pretty different.
Thanks for your thoughts.
