Welcome back, Joe. Can't wait to go on some runs this coming season. That thing is way nice! yiah! Got any more pics of the interior/ dash area? Just curious how it's set up.

That's the last thing people would think you meant here on this board.

I just thought it would be a good idea to start a list of things to start thinking about getting ready for dune season. Ya know, the things that oftens get overlooked like changing the genny oil, checking to see you are due for a chain/ sprocket set, etc. I'll start. Try and copy/ paste the list and keep it going if possible. :dumbass: -check trailer tires for separation/ proper air pressure -generator oil/ filter/ maintenance -current OHV stickers on all toys -whips/flags that are in decent shape -air filters on anything & everything with a motor -new gloves? ditch those old holey ones -check batteries on bikes and trailer that have been sitting -check flashlights for fresh batteries -propane levels

:?: I dunno. The box was still there when I left at about 10 after. :fight: Aww poor Berty mousey.

I got "pretty good" first try. Thats after 2 beers too! I am still convinced beer makes everything better. LOL

So here's the story. We get this BLM/ government truck (Chevy Uplander) in the dealership today for a crank/ no start condition. Sandsnake actually pawned the job off to me since I had nothing going on this afternoon. I said "sure why not?" Well, come to find out the PCM harness (which consists of about 15-20 wires) was chewed through about 75% of the way by a rodent. :fight: I looked a little further in the airbox where the PCM sits and I saw a tail. I think to myself, ok a dead rat. No biggie. I grabbed my long nose needle nose pliers to grab it and all of a sudden it squirmed into the air duct a little farther into the fender. Son of a biatch was still alive! I shot it in the a$$ with some brake cleaner and bam it was gone. So now the whole shop is gathered around the truck looking for this rodent. It was a good size fugger too. We're looking in the inner fender, pulling off the wheels, the fender liners, etc. Jim sarted spraying every nook and cranny with the water hose and nothing. We can find this thing anywhere. As we sat there and the excitement calmed down, Jim noticed the lil bastard sitting on the pass side strut tower just starting at us. :dumbass: After shooting it with some shop air LOL, it squirmed into the pass side fender this time. There were so many hiding spots for this lil guy it was SO hard to find him. I kept shooting water in every inner frame rail and crossmember and nothing. To make a long story shorter....after many attempts of using the water hose, compressed air, looking everywhere with flashlights and mirrors, Jim finally used compressed air and brake cleaner and shot it in a crossmember and it ran out and hit the ground. I caught it with a push broom. It squeeled and pissed itself LOL and then I dumped it in a box outside. BaBerrrt felt bad for it so he's gonna take it to the desert for a new home. Today was slow as hell until this happened. Then it was quite the eventful day. NEVER A DULL MOMENT! :clown: The pics.... chewed up wires (lil blurry sorry)... Danny from body shop got everyone good with the fake a$$ shop snake. THE SUSPECT Bert has a new friend. Now I gotta reassemble this damn truck back together and finally start working on it. :angry2:

Well if you do we won't know who you are if you keep changing your name! :dumbass:

:dumbass: Good job Ken.

I love our DISH Network.

Glad you got it handled Pat.

Damn we look big pimpin right there! MUTHA BITCHEZZ!! :ogp: Are you kidding me?

mmman, can we have one topic without talking about the damn president? lol We all know where that discussion goes...nowhere real quick.

Just curious how business is going in everyone's professions. I am in the automotive industry and work at Chevy. It seems business has picked up slightly over the last year, well except for the last week or so. A couple weeks ago it was the busiest I have seen it in a long time. But now we've been pretty dead. Although I'm sure it has to do with the time of month (back to school). The Cash for Clunkers promotion has sure helped our sales department. They've been selling lots of cars lately! Business is up and down and very unpredictable these days, but it seems we are hopefully slowly but surely moving in the right direction. So I hope. :praying:

Yep, pretty crazy stuff right there. It's crazy how quickly and drastically the world and society has changed in just the last 10 years due to advances in technology. I'm still trying to figure out if it's a good thing or not. There's so much sacrificed for certain conveinances and "improvements".

I'm looking forward to getting rid of some stuff that day.

ooooo, you just might have!!!!!!!! And your point is what?...that you have no life? I started that thread in Dumont Issues as a topic of it's own to talk about the trash out there that weekend. I didn't throw it right in the middle of a trip report. Get over it and try to stop taking jabs at people on the site. As admins, we don't tell people that you aren't allowed to b*tch about stuff on the site. Start a thread of your own and b*tch away. I just won't click on it and read any of it.

Happy birthday bud. Hope you have a great day! Cheers to 27.

Man that place looks amazing to ride. Thanks for the video!

it's like that show Clean House Looks great Cole

Those came out great, Dave!

I did that about 10 times throughout all the crap I have done so far. I'll be bringing it in to Johnny Walker soon. I am done messing with it on my own. I don't have any extended warranty on my trailer. Trust me, I'd use it if I did.

It's an 06. You do the math.

sick bike! Those conversions seem like they'd be badass.

that's getting real old

jr, enough of the damn "I have nothing worth adding to this post!! - I have nothing worth adding to this post!! - x2" posts!!!!!
