That's assuming Force would start delivering by then. It's like the NY lotto. Hey, you never know.

Congrats on the Times of India article Arka. Pleasantly surprised to read it today over morning tea.

What was that bit was ragging non-Jeep drivers?

[tsk1979]

I saw the article too! Contrats man! Its great to see the gang. I don't have a jeep or 4x4 yet just a cractor otherwise would love to join you.
For a change the article is well written. Good to see mainstream publications giving attention!

[moralfibre]

Seems the article was published country wide I read it in the local TOI edition too. Great going guys!
