Hey Scott,
I agree with Todd......good on ya!
I like the part you are not saying goodbye to the Porsche community. That shows where your heart is. Your brain is obviously engaged with this decision and that's not a bad thing.
I've been trying to cut back on my "baggage" too........although it would be hard for me to cut loose of my tub - there's other stuff to lose...
This is very encouraging - thanks for your post and best of luck!
