Default And I think a 500K order is big!

Kinda like the S8 next to that Hummer, my orders are like a little TT, your division is like the factory that made the Hummer!!

But when you can do 3 or 4 of them in a year, life gets pretty good. And yes, the reason for the H2 is that it was designed and built entirely on the SW that I sell. So are all Ford products, Nissan, etc.
My customer is Lockheed Martin, but somehow we couldn't convince them to give us a rocket or a satellite as a prize.

Default I'll tell you that IMO, the H2 was rather easy to parallel park in a city. One of my buddies

owns a H2 and I used to drive it all the time when we went out. I thought it actually handled pretty nicely for a large vehicle. The ride was pretty soft, yet the handling was compliant enough.

Default I-deas, NX and Solid Edge...

I'd love to help you out, but I can only sell to Lockheed Martin. My legacy company, SDRC, is located in Milford. Close by to you?
