Hey, I passed the word MONTHS ago.....it's their fault for not planning their trips around ME. haha

All this talk about the 450's, and not even one iota about the Can Am's......WTF! haha I've had my 08 for just over a year, and except for an oil leak caused by a couple of rolls, and air leaks in the tired caused by lowering my air pressure too much at Pismo and getting sh** in the bead. other than that, no problems at all. and as of 09, they have 2 kinds of 450X's, one is XC and on is MX, main difference is the width of the stance.

btw, my roadtrip starts tomorrow. Let me know.

No replies except for Bot and Drtygrl at North Sand Hills, CO, on the weekend of the 10th of Oct.

Does nobody ride anymore?

And here is my new home....and toys. Better pics to follow.

ya, found out today that some jackass, when he cut off the plug for the trailers power on my tow package, they clipped it off (yes cut it), ABOVE the coupler so that now, I not only have to buy a new 7 prong plug, but also a coupler and splice it back together....gladly I'm taking it in for 5th Wheel work tomorrow so I'm sure they will fix the situation.

it was easy....locked all the drivelines, hooked it up via chain to another MTVR, and slam it into reverse once they start pulling. haha

Well, thanks Mr Smarty Pants for playing the one-up game. haha

yup, I only looked at a toy hauler. and it had to have a seperate garage as well. 39 foot 5th wheel. plenty of room to live.

I'd like more gas mileage, one cause it's easier on the wallet, and 2 I plan on taking a few road trips once I get the RV my truck will be towing, and I'll have that in about 3 days.

A few updates of my beautiful mug.

Yup, I did it, and for a size comparisson of how big the tires are, I'm 6'4".....ya, it was high centered from the front to the back axles. haha

and last but not least, me and the crew we had on the Detachment I was on. We basically built a base in 2 months.

I still say your the better half. So it's up to you to make Bot look good!

I full heartedly and completely agree with this statement.

what would be worse is if they got married on their birthdays....she'd be making sure he doesn't forget either of them. haha

Same here, I recently bought THE BEAST, and it's only getting 10.8 MPG.....either something's wrong, or I need a chip and a couple other mods to keep the towing power, but increase the MPG.

As for the details, 08 F-450 SD. 6.4 Liter Detroit (Dual) Turbo Diesel V8.

Here's my entry for the month. Only 2 weeks till i take off for my road trip, let me know if you want to ride when I'm in town. I'll be going from CA-WA-MT-CO-TX-CA between Sept 25 and Oct 20. Bot and Drtygrl and I are riding in CO on the weekend of the 9th of oct. We'd definitly like to make it a quadcrazy ride. let me know.

ok, y has bot seem to have created a dynasty with the photo contests? haha he should be banned from posting pics since he's a mod.

I didn't get any pics of the US using quads, but I saw a little of everything over here for utes. mainly though. Can Am Outlanders used by the Dutch.

my time here is nearly done. No casualties in my Battalion. Time to continue planning my road trip and get my mistress into the shop for some long needed TLC.

I will be buying one as soon as I can afford it. a new truck and RV (hopefully) are my priorities right now. but unless someone wants to help me out with the $20K pricetag, I'm going to have to wait it out.

from my photo album on here.

why'd it shrink when it's about 16 times bigger when I view it on the site and copy the link?

Updated.

There's an open invite to all to join us....weekend of the 9th of Oct is the date.

Hey, I snaped some pics of the brits and danish using quads here in afghanistan, I'll get them up soon as I get them loaded on to myspace so I can load them on here.

I plan on being in Socal from the end of august till the end of sept, but most of that time Shiela will be in the shop getting some TLC and factory updates. other than that, I plan on going for a ride with my OR friend about the 26th of Sept. or so. let me know if you're up for coming out and joining us?

ok, third time is a charm for my road trip.

This one will take me from Cali -WA - ID - MT - WY - CO - KS - OK - TX - NM - AZ - and back to cali. I've already got plans in the works to ride with a friend in OR about the 25th of Sept, and also with Bot and Drtygrl on or about the 6-8th of Oct. if you're able to join Bot. Drtygrl and I for a day or 2 of riding, we are hoping a few of you can, then we'll have a QC party. I'm planning at staying at a KOA campground near their home.

oh, and if you're in WA, don't worry, I plan on riding there too, just family will come first on that portion of the trip.

I hope that we can get a few of you out there, but plans won't be 100% firm till about a week or 2 before cause of travel and weather. and the other factor is if the banks will say yes to me getting a new truck (F-450) and a new RV (Keystone Raptor or Fusion)....

let me know if you're up for riding anytime during my trip and we'll do our best to coordinate with each other.

Till then keep the wheels underneath you and stay safe.
