Do you ride a Doo or something? Last trip out it never failed needed a tow out 3 out of 3 days....Every single day this year a Doo has needed a frigging tow. My kitty treats me well and always gets out on it's own power

I had today in my moms nice warm garage installing subs, amp and speakers in my truck, can't believe I waited so long to put in a system

On a side note, some a$$hole swiped my cd's off my passenger seat about a month ago, kept thinking I left them somewhere but now figured out it was a frigging thief. Lost like 50 CD's a lot were burnt but still I guess I can be thankful they didn't take anything else....

Dontcha just love modded sleds? I used to have a pretty wild polaris ultra with a PSI engine in it.. allways fighting with that darn thing! Then I went to a 800RMK, stock,, with a can,, had so much fun with that sled, never caused me any problems,, never had to change a belt going accross a half open lake,, trying to make sure the track didnt freeze into the water,,, that was the day of the 40 second belt change,,, LOL

O that sucks. Yes I have never had a mod sled and don't think I want to besides for a 4 stroke Yami, I could live with that if I had the money. I'm so lazy I got a compensator for my carb so I don't have to jet anymore.

The thing I don't get it, i'm really sure they were on the front seat, but why was nothing else gone, I had a sat radio, bullydog programmer, among many other things in my truck. I'm glad they weren't touched but I find it really weird. Need to get my windows tinted so no one can see in.

WOW - it must really bite to be up north right about now!

It's been around 80 for close to a week now and cooling off to the mid-70's before head'n for 90 next week.

Here in Arizona 3 of the last 5 yrs have been the hottest in history and unless some serious rain comes soon SO-CAL will be rationing water come summer. Az missed that bullet a few years back by our teeth. Can't wait for the next ice age.

Wasn't that Alberta's motto back in the 80's?

A co worker of mine, he works up here for 6 months or so, and the rest of the year he spends in Arizona and Mexico. All he has is his truck, trailer and a mail box in Strathmore.
