Looks like an abortion! I like to look, but at this point in life, I'd never entertain anything other than my Prowler!

Agree RD another 5 years of payments would put me over 55...not for me but I love to look........sometimes I will take a half a day and just look around,we just got a new can-am dealer................:)

So is that going to be your next project? A $700 add on is cheaper than $17,000 for a new rig!

I retired at 55 [2002] and was what I considered all set … then my wife of 33 years decided she didn't want to move to Cd'A, Id. [which was OUR plan for years. so the divorce she decided on instead took a ton of my retirement funds , lost my azz on the home settlement and what nots retirement changed a ton .. so one never knows what life will bring. plans do change LOL

the Gal I have been seeing for 3 years now loves outdoors , fairly new to it but loves the learning process so life is a yoyo LOL BTW we're getting married end of June :) .. may end up selling Coeur d'Alene as we'll be living in Sparks/Reno [that decision has not been finalized.. selling up north that is.]

I did switch brands, we went with a new rzr s .. my riding area and style change. We now do a lot of long range trail riding and it was just a better fit for us. I do miss my prowler for doing work and hauling but I like the new rig just fine as well.. been looking pretty hard at the new wildcat trail... time will tell hehehe

401's are great! We have 5 different plans available for us to draw off of, we try to limit our income to 50 a year to avoid any taxes, so far so good!

Well this thread seem to change topics but what the heck instead of a different brand of side by side we all had a different brand of wives. My first marriage didn't last a year, tried to do the right thing oh well got a great daughter out of it. Going on 24 years this time, second wife and second daughter no wonder my red hair turned gray! There she is crashed on that new couch, table doesn't take very good pics in low lighting.

Gotta agree with that and due to the size you could haul it in the back of a truck instead of a trailer. In our area most are utility, probably because of farm use and the lack of nearby trails.

Dirt Wheels tested one this month, great reviews! It would be a fun ride for balls out running, be fun to try! I think I'd tire of it pretty quick, but that is me!

I would like a "true" 4 seater utv with a bigger motor and more power, but that just isn't high on the "need" list with the wife.....:(:D

Thanks, this summer I hope to replace the cavas that came with them on the front hinge side with matching plastic. I want to bring the black up to the top of the lower door and then maybe clear on top to resemble a wing window, still thinking that part out.

I use to work for Ricoh Canada. I was one of there top tech's fixing multifunctional printers up until july 9th 2013. My career of 33 years. In that time I went from the bottom to shop foreman to tech team lead to field service manager back down to technical services to Image Systems Technical specialist. Then one day my manager said to me why does a technician need a parking spot. That's the day I packed up my desk and said you will never see me I the shop ever again. I only came in for meetings became just a tech again. Same pay just no title and bs. Then about 5 years later we lost a couple of big contracts and that's when I new I'm going to be able to get out with a buy out. Highest paid they needed to trim the fat they asked me if I wanted a buy out and I said sign me up. I got a severance package and I was gone. no party no nothing get out.

I'm not bitter glad I'm gone I still see them every once and a while. Now I can do what I like to do. So I'm going to try my hand at selling in the fall or maybe sooner. Depends on what HR will allow me.

I do a lot of volunteer fixing for people just to keep my mind occupied. Not much I can't do. Oh ya I can't clean toilets that's a woman's job. :eek:LMAO
