Very good advice, particularly for the younger enthusiasts among us. Some of us older folks know ourselves better (at least I think I have better judgment now than when I was younger). Also, not much chance of a new kid changing my life at this point. Regardless, buying a Cobra completed or in kit form is a major commitment. If you're not absolutely sure, then not shooting for the moon the first time makes a lot of sense.
