New Ride
« on: February 07, 2019, 06:22:14 PM »
So cancelled our trip to California due to snow storms up and down the coast.  Didn't want to be on the road over the weekend with all the others that can't drive in the snow.  Anyway got this about a week ago and had the hard top, windshield and winch put on.  They called up today and said it was ready.  Just in time for the next snow storm.

Sweet!!  :tup:

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

I need one of those!

The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

Awesome. Those things look like fun. What brand is it?

Seeing the pic of it loaded on the top of the pickup bed gives me the sudden urge to go to Youtube to watch some fun loading/unloading videos.  :tup:

Full windshields are great for the winter, but unless you're going fully enclosed, they make the cab a major dust trap in the spring/summer/fall.

 :yeah:  A rear windshield helps with dust vacuum as well as a vented front windshield.  Good choice, sweet ride.

Hey Russ, hold my beer and watch this  :chuckle:  :tup:  ;)
Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.

I have the same one in the 5 seat version.

The day before the snow hit I bought a 4 person boat tube to tow behind it.

It towed it and the kids great in the horse pasture.

Whipped them like a bad horse until they were dizzy.

Can you comment on your back of the truck SXS haul design please?

That is just a sled bed 108" long.  Someone took and standard sled bed and cut the width down.  Put and winch on it.  He gave me 10' long wooden planks but I have 10' arced steel foldable ramps coming.  The whole thing weighs about 450 lbs.  To mount it to the bed it uses turn buckles mounted under neath and they connect to the bed rings.
