  1. Well even not towing, I'd change it at least every 30K, even if you run the fancy synthetic oil.
  2. There's some killer riding down at his place in Parker! Not boating....RZR's. Speaking of New Year's. Glamis might not be looking so hot at this point. We shall wait and see.
  3. If you tow with it, I'd change it every 15,000 miles. Cheap insurance, especially with a 1/2 ton. Those rear ends are small and go through alot of abuse when towing a toyhauler!

  5. I think he's referring to a dirtbike...not quad.
  6. Glamis is next for us. New Years weekend rocked there last year so we're doing it again this year.
  7. Thanks Jack. Nah, no new lens yet. A few of those pics were taken with my little Olympus which has a fairly wide angle. I also used it for the panoramic shot. It auto stitches 3 or 4 pics together in panorama mode. Wish you could have made it out too, Jack.
  8. There always is. It sounded ridiculous though and I had to share.
  9. I'd love to hit up Saint A. The tough part would be getting off work. That would be a way fun trip though! That guy in the video looked like he definitely knew how to live life. That's too bad it was cut so short.
  10. kickass video, man! Those were some great lines out there.

  12. This may have been the nicest weekend out there so far this season. The weather was incredible, there was hardly ANYBODY there, and the dunes were bitchen smooth. We pulled in Friday night around 9 ish and met up with 80grit, OGP, Joe Duner, sanddunesaddict, wsky70, and a couple others. It was a relaxing and slightly chilly night that mostly consisted of some cold beers around the fire and a movie. Saturday was absolutely gorgeous when we woke up. After some breakfast and coffee, me, Chadwick & Mike hit the dunes on the quads. There was practically nobody out there and the lines were great. Shortly after lunch we went on another ride, but took our new friend, Steve out this time. That ride was amazing. We were 5th gear pinned from the south end to the north end and never slowed down. We must have covered all of Dumont in about 7 minutes. What a rush. That was a kickass ride. After getting back to camp, Chad had to take off and we all went out for a run in the buggies. We stopped at Talladega to get some pics of Bert & Rob doing some high speed runs. Then as we were about to take off, I popped another PCM fuse just like last trip. I diagnosed it in no time though and found out all it was was the O2 sensor was shorted. So I just unplugged it and I was good to go. phew. Glad to figure that out! Sat night was good times. 80grit got the UFC fight and hosted a lil UFC party in his toyhauler. That fight card was really good and it was really fun to watch. I was glad to see St Pierre win mostly because I had a little last minute bet going on via text with ragdoll. lol I was going to buy him a bottle of Captain if Koscheck won and he'd buy me a bottle of Tanqueray if St Pierre won. Awesome. And holy crap. Why was that popcorn SO good? hahaaaa Then later after the fight we hit up comp hill. Our party in a box worked out well and we had a nice little fire going while we ran the hill. I let my buddy Mike drive my car over there since I was already feeling pretty good. He was very impressed with my new car. He has a new respect for turboed Hondas. Sunday morning we slept in a little bit and relaxed. It felt freakin great. Then Mike & I went on one more quad ride before packing it up early afternoon and heading out. These weekends are really was Dumont is all about to me. I can't wait to do another one, but with Anna next time for sure. Too bad the rest of the crew wasn't there, but it was great seeing and camping with everyone that was out this weekend. Pics are on the way.
  13. ahhhhh! You berry berry smart guy! You're my kind of people. lol
  14. Ahh ok. That's kinda what I initially thought it was for. There were alot of footprints in the area and it seemed like an ideal spot for a shoot. I wonder why they left all the crap out there?
  15. That's good to hear that they will always be out there. On our ride this morning we noticed some caution tape and stakes marking off an area of a razorback dune right in the middle of the dunes. I wonder if that's where the accident was. It was weird to see and we wondered why they didn't take the stakes and tape when they left.
  16. Nice! Congrats Joe. Glad you got it in time.
  17. Thanks Andy. It sure was a good time and I know everyone really enjoyed it and looks forward to it every year. I spoke with Larry at the BLM yesterday and it still sounds promising. There is definitely a new process to the event permits and a few new hoops I have will have to jump through, but Larry assured me he'll walk me through it and help us out in order for it to go on again this year. I stated that if it were a huge pain in the a$$ we wouldn't do it or we'd just have a very informal trip instead. He said he hopes to see it happen again and that he wants us to put it on. That was good to hear. So with that said...we'll be gettin this show on the road soon!!! Let's rock n roll atc bitchezzz! Lol
  18. I'm in for the whole weekend. See you guys there. No monkie this trip...just myself but looking forward to a nice quiet December weekend and weather.
  19. I was just reading this news article and Super Troopers popped into my head for some reason. http://www.fox5vegas...321/detail.html
  20. Well I don't need or want a motor, but thanks. I can move this to the for sale section if that was the point of the post though.
