    The untold story of Cummins and Chrysler

    Almost correct. 1st Diesel in a full size Ram truck was Mitsubishi. Cummins also was on the ropes but not that bad. They lost a couple contracts w FORD New Holland that hurt them. Essentially Dodge Truck was approached to use the BT5.9.

    Yes the elevate kit is worth every penny. And regardless of other’s opinions, I found the Hellfire wheels really sharpened up track speed response.

    zero turn mowers

    A lot of the expense of a ZTM boils down to the drive motors. 3100’s and above are commercial duty. 2000 series is for the home jobbers. They are not serviceable. If you want a durable Zero Turn look at the wheel motors. It tells you all you need to know. The bulk of the cost on zero turns...

    zero turn mowers

    I bought a Kubota Z411 in 2013. I mow 2 acres of grass and sort of maintain 2 acres of field mix as well. Kawasaki engine. Great cut. Durable. Problem free. Love it.

    Just sent a message to the fellow that bought my Sidewinder. He did scare himself a little silly on his first couple rides. Sounds like he is really enjoying her though! Glad she went to a good home *sigh*

    Yeah, but most of the sponsored sledders get 2-3 sleds free from Polaris each year. And this is from knowing one personally. 2 per year. Must go to all functions (paid for) and provide structured content and a certain amount of it each year, take part in promos, etc etc.. so it isn't really...

    Ditto. 7s is a gamechanger when in the back country. Radios were a great leap forward. This provides location as well. Faster response time when seconds count.

    Can’t make this ch!t up.

    I know 2 contractors that have a similar contract here in BC and they are permitted to have the fun stuff. I am working on going for a ‘ride’ with them. While I am certain they won’t let me fly the 500 or the A Star, they might let me take a couple shots.

    I’m thinking that sledding this weekend might be out for me. Still. The bowl side of Dingley S2 is calling to me. I might just load up and take a ride even if I don’t hit it that hard.

    Brother went to St. Mary’s lake area today and it was an absolute dumpster fire all the way to 6500’. Total junk from what I understand. Thinking that I will be staying home this weekend if that’s the case. They were reading temps of 4c at elevation. Going to be high avy risks if we get snow on...

    I miss the sound, that visceral growl that the engine would make and it’ banshee wail on the top end, engine screaming, Turbocharger wailing. And of course the POWER. God the power was addicting. Still w arthritis etc, and I could not get her Jenny Craig’s any more…..I was cajoled into riding...

    Thanks for the warning. Dammit. I really wanted to cross over and hit that area again. It was fantastic variation in terrain that challenged my riding. And one sidehill in particular that scared the heck out of me. 150yards of success, or a 250’ drop of failure. Looking for that exact spot on...
