Torchbug goes to Downeast Maine!

Edit: repost for the afternoon crowd. => Ok so as I laid out about my new car acquisition, I took the Torchbug to Downeast Maine for a pretty epic Labor Day weekend. Here is the weekend in all of it's glory. Torchbug had better be over 21 though, otherwise I am in trouble.

I think my tenure with the Torchbug has been completed. It was party to a phenomenal weekend and past week. Next it heads to Coty in New Hampshire. I will be making a drive to hand deliver it.
