Thank you guys for eight years as a Pelican

Thank you all for eight great years (officially) being a part of this Pelican community, esp here on PPOT. Many of you I now consider friends, and we would have never "met" if it weren't for PPOT. For that I'm thankful.

I've met quite a few of you in person, and I'd really like to meet many more of you out there in the real world. So if you're interested in keeping touch, the Pelican email system works very well, or friend me on Facebook. LinkedIn works too. I'll do the same, reaching out to some of you as I can.

Like many of us, PPOT has been an everyday part of my life and consumed a great deal of my time. The topics are varied, but as you know the automotive discussions have always been my favorite. I've enjoyed the debates and fact sharing, and it's clear that everyone has their opinions.....even me.

So thank you all for being a part of my daily life for all these years, and I wish you all the best.

Keep in touch!


....

Are you just saying thanks, or leaving us?

Congratulations!!! No need to thank. I am sure that I speak for everybody here when I say that I appreciate the bank of automotive knowledge that you share with us. Your music.... well that's another story. Glad to have you on board. I'm hoping to throw some business your way in the future.

Uh, Eric, are you sticking around or are you signing off here? Cuz I hope you're planning to stick around. Your knowledge of cars and the industry are unparalleled on this board, as far as I'm concerned, and that's saying a lot - there are some serious car people here.

Eric, Please look me up on Linkedin. I don't know your last name.

It was always a pleasure to read your posts

Sounds like a goodbye to me.

I have always appreciated Eric's input into the world of new and used cars.
