Some converters are much more durable than others.
Any questions?

3 days 'til the season starts. And I, for one, am just totally excited. 2020 has been so uneventful.

Thank you.
You're still in Tennessee, though.

I don't know exactly where you live. I might be a little closer. My I-40 exit/mile marker is 378 (the Mississippi River being 0).
