  1. it's easier to find a job when you already have one: strange but true. since you have two jobs, I wouldn't worry about this one. screw the 2 weeks notice, they'll give you a bad reference anyway. Theaters go thru ppl faster than mcdaonlads does this won't be a surprise to them. just tell them Hey, it's been fun BUT I dont appreciate the way I have been treated I hate the hours the pay sucks my girlfriend complains that I always smell like popcorn. That should do it my friend.
  2. you said, it, your alignment is shot. the engine is working much harder plus there could be other problems. remember the old stubby vans? OK, sorry, we used to have old stubby vans with the engine in a housing just like the rhino. most of us with more than 2 brain cells installed electric booster fans to keep the damm things cool since they LOVED to vaporlock. If it has one, install another. something with a switch you can control. the earlier rhinos had vaporlock problems with the heat captured in the doghouse so us olf farts came up with ways to solve this! that's the craps, man, let me know how I can help you out here. "No Bloviating" per MWTE hahaha
  3. aw crud, I'm happy everyone is OK. same thing happened to me years ago at Saddleback Park. but I was on a bike. Guy racing the inside and nailed me good. Imagine if you had been on a bike!! Take that ride to a dealer or insurance center and make DAD pay for labor and everything- there is no reason he should not be 100% responsible. As for the kid, we all make mistakes and now it is his turn to learn it- the hard way. Fortunately kids heal fast .. and he prob won't have a scar to brag about HAHAHA hang in there buddy.
  4. you can buy a cheapo trailer like I did and mod it to work [ I don't CARE what ppl think], reverse the rims or get a bigger truck. I also have a portable winch setup for my jacked up pickup to put the raptor in there. after two crashes, we winch it in now. chain goes from stake pockets at front to winch and we pull it up the ramp slowly. I just extended the cables to reach the truck battery..... there's a remote control so you could manhandle it if necessary. like $50 at harbor freight. something to think about anyway. see in winter here ramps are BAD, like bridges, they get ICY. 400+ lbs on your chest = not good. I had to survive the 'shame on me' before I created this. and now I see other ppl using it around here as well.
  5. I use a 4x8 harbor freight trailer with fold down ramps front and rear behind a pickup. It becomes a ramp as well. drop the tailgate and the front ramp, rear ramp and ride the quad up into the truck. then close the front ramp and lash the second quad to it in the trailer. Surprising what you can come up with when youre broke hahaha....will post pics after I learn how later today.
  6. that's ALMOST as much fun as going' shootin' and a helluva lot cheaper!!!! nice find MWKE!!!!!!! my psyche thanks you my neighbors thank you my family thanks you... you get the idea....
  7. mine sounds like 1/2 a Harley.....
  8. that looks a lot like that ATV SAFETY course I took last summer...... and yes, Roody, your headlights work. Ajmboy: "every orifice in his body is puckered"
  9. I am right in the middle of the state in the mountains, east side so all set up for high altitudes and rocky terrain. the dunes are a long way away for me....But if you ever get to the dry side of the state, look me up! raptor is ready, 1 atc110 is ready, the atc90 we are working on still.
  10. well clean it off and see where it is. You can buy fluorescent oil dye from a Chevy dealer. Take it for a ride then drag that old blacklight out into the garage or ride the quad into the house hahaha, whatever suits you, whatever the little woman will tolerate LOL.
  11. HEY! yep still here, thanx. had some work done at the hosp then sampled their fine meds for about a month LOL:yes:
  12. well I'm glad that worked out for you!
  13. Tom you should know by now not to trust anything that Madge says..... Billy I was working at a Honda dealer when the atc90 arrived- in fact I went and got it. we all thot " what the heck? it's all swelled up!" hahaha but it was the grandaddy of atvs as we know them now....
  14. salon chair? did someone tell you I won the lottery?[false] or that I work for Gene Simmons [true of course] if ya got it flaunt it ! yea someone told me that new moisturizer might have some odd side effects but they assured me it was "nothing that would make me stand out in a crowd." VERVE you were born at the right moment dude! the only down side is that this is getting expensive....and the environazis haven't all moved to Russia yet, but we keep a positive attitude every day.......
  15. ...only my hairdresser knows for sure...:rolleyes:
  16. yea I started about 6 or 7 on minibikes but was already driving harvest (the big JDs) in South Dakota so the minibikes were just kinda what we call pitbikes now....they were just fun.......it evolved from there I think..... BTW this is an actual current picture of me. Yea I know I should moisturize more...
  17. yer gonna make me ill dude, the mental image alone.......let's not go there.
  18. quite easily. The Doctor told me my balance was no longer good enuf for 2 wheels.....I can ride with the best of them, but it's too much work for my old heart. so I went to 3 wheels, then to four. It's a change, but it has been a BALL the whole way! nice folks everywhere!
  19. welcome Oregonian! will dp our best to find more!:rolleyes:
  20. check with someone. most auto parts stores will know someone local who does it. even this littlw town has a powder coater. the custom car guys and the golfers keep him busy..
  21. you could always paint them or better yet powdercoat them...
  22. my thot was cycle country since they do plows and implements, but no luck there. still searching.... one of the big plow mfrs markets a whole bunch of springs I just haven't found them yet. an ATV magazine might help... google search turned up only Baldwin Motorsports for RCS springs - maybe. There just isn't much out there for AC. Did the dealer say anything helpful?
  23. I do a little restoring anf found a BUNCH of parts on EBay. very good luck there.
