How far away is that from you, Tom?

The Route planer shows 3 routes between 312 & 360 km. Times shown are from 3 1/2 hrs. to 4 hrs. I have learned to add some time to what they say due to construction and traffic so I'd say it's more like 4 1/2 hrs. away. Give or take a few.

Thank you guys.
I find that the organization, cleanliness and production process of the Boker Company is remarkable.
What a great place to be employed by.

Great find on that article. I love seeing glimpses of what goes on at the Boker factory. It is a special treat to those of us here in the USA.
