    New MKIV build in Texas

    Hello everyone
    Thrilled to be here. I am a 2023 alum of the build class in Michigan and am just beginning to build the MKIV with the occasional help of my children. Checking to see if this is the right place to begin my posts for a build thread?

    I’ll be adding photos, commentary and lots of questions soon — what a great community!

    As Mike said, plenty of us in the Metroplex. I'm out in Aledo if you ever want to reach out or get together to talk about this foolhardy, but truly enjoyable adventure.
