OK, it's official: I'm not pursuing a sale of my R65-- "you gotta know when to hold 'em", and I've decided to keep Schatzie. For now, I'm also keeping my '09 Bonneville as a spare (and for the occasional superslab journey). Got a new maintenance free battery ($200) and checked her in to BMW/Plano for brake work and general service. As the service tech said, "it's definitely yellow." Will join the DFW contingent at the Blue Hangar, as soon as she's out of the shop!
