Load the Dive Boat with gear and move to the Florida Keys for the Winter. Of course take the quads, lots of mudding to do in the Glades [bartor]

gotta put cardboard in front of the radiator on my truck...that little 300ci strait 6 don't put out much heat, takes forever to warm up..

by the way it's the third truck with the 300ci that i owned, and had to cardboard them all.



gotta put the chain and strap in the cab so i can find them when i pull people out of the ditch. (donations accepted!!)

when in doubt use duct tape

[dance]I use Royal Purple Synthetic Motor Oil on all the Quads. They really seem to start better in the cold, and also get better gas mileage too.[dance]
