Not me! I go for quality, not quantity!

Also some have called US fair weather souls & it is TRUE. LOL!

But my Trooper is one of the OLDEST, one of the first fifty that had to be upgraded every time I turned around. I purchased mine in 2008. They came out in Sept & I took my home in Nov.

I got no job, I'm retired, I'm handicapped, can't golf, broke my airplane(& it broke me), what else have I got to do? go ride around and I got some beautiful areas to play in and a wonderful wife that likes to go with me. I plan on running it up some more this spring and summer and fall. I have the Little Sahara Dunes, I have Currant Creek area, south and west of Strawberry Reservoir, Moab is not that far, and when I go out, it's usually 50 Km per run. Maybe I ought to get one of the new ones when they come out.

"OMG!" is right!! You better drive it, or it will rust away, or deteriorate to pile of ???? Holy Crap!! Thats not even broke in yet!! lol

No where to ride close by. The Oregon BLM has closed us off practically. It's a crime. But when we come to the Jamboree, it'll get some miles on her! Can't hardly wait!!!!

Blm is trying to close off places in Idaho too. It really sucks, they say they want to save the land & preserve it? Well, if no one gets to see it or use it, whats the sense? It should be protected, but not by keeping people off trails!! Most people don't abuse it, plus if they see someone abusing they tell them, or turn them in! We need to be able to see & use our beautiful mts, valleys,, I know you have plenty in or..

after my trip to Hanksville, I'm now at 7025 kilometers.

I have put 1700 miles on mine in six months, don't know how many KM that is. Now I'm starting to have problems with it. bummer

I have a Turbo and 30' itp Mud Lites, I made my own top, back, half doors and removeable windows, I installed a intake snorkel and sealed the area under the hood. I was very impressed with it at first but now I'm concerned about the reliability. I have owned two Rhinos and one Prowler, the Trooper is by far the best when it's running.

I agree; it's a crime what our government is doing. I think most off road enthusiasts actually really do care about open land. We don't want it to become "silt" either. I'm amazed that the state of Utah is so gracious with the natural landscape in letting people be "among" it's natural beauty. From where I live in Bend, Oregon all the way to the state pf Idaho is open land, and it's crazy to cut it all off to off roaders. I recently have started to get an interest in snowmobiles, and the government is also trying to cut off wilderness areas to snowmobiles! What are they gonna ruin; snow? It makes no sense! OK; my blood pressure is climbing again. I better back off. ;)

Not sure, but I think the odometer is in the computer, so when you get it working, you may have your mileage, unless your problem is that you're not getting a signal from the transmission.

I have 7025.1 Kilometers

my speedo hasn't worked since i welded the fenders on. i tried a new ecu and it still didn't work.

the snow is all gone in the crowsnest pass but there is still a lot of snow up on the rocks.

the snowpack is 178" yet, a little over 14feet

i live here in calgary

A couple of years ago, I welded on mine and the speedo quit working. Switched it with one from my dealer and speedo worked ok. Extended warranty replaced it for me. Don't weld on it anymore without unplugging the computer.

      Anyone have a Bad Boy Bandit?
      By mac66
      Apparently, these are Hisun or at least they use Hisun engines. I can't find much info on them online yet.  Ran across a used one with just 100 miles on it as a very reasonable price.  Just curious.
      Okay, more info...they are owned by Textron Corp who also owns Bell Helicopter, Cessna & Beechcraft aircraft, Ez-Go & Cushman and Arctic Cat and a bunch of other companies.
      So are thy cheap Chinese crap machines or are they good to go?

      Travel time question
      By Greg Kilgore
      I would really like to know what you guys think about this. I'll try not to ramble and make it as clear as I can.
       
      I took this new job with companyX as a fiber splicer a year ago. I have a 45' bucket truck and 10or12 x 8 ft enclosed splice trailer I have to take home. Within the last 6 months all the management in the splice dept left. Now the power/construction management and higher ups are filling in. Just recently we were told travel to our 1st job is not payable even though we are in a company vehicle. 
      We are union so I asked the union business manager about this. His reply was be grateful you were paid travel as long as you were and that you don't have to drive your POV to the job.
       
      Last week I had 50hr total. The job area is 4-4.5 hrs away. My time was reduced to 44.5 hrs since we were told this travel thing on Tuesday of that week. I wasn't hired for this area. I was hired for area a lot closer to home. 
       
      Pay is good. Work is not hard. Insurance is through the union and so far pretty good.
      But I hate the thought of having to work extra just to make a 40hr paycheck. Anyone who has to drive as part of their job knows windshield time is not easy.
       
      Anyway what do you guys think. Should I look for a different job or just suck it up because of the decent pay and health insurance.

      2018 Sidekick starter needs replacement ~ Looking for an alternative starter
      By Stan Morton
      My 2018 XG-850-SL starter died yesterday. The old part number from Kubota is E7153-11732 which has been superceed by part # EG881-63010. I am looking for an aftermarket starter because the Kubota retail price for the starter starts at $550 and upwards toward $850.  If anyone has gone down this road before and has found an aftermarket starter ~ please share with me. We own a ranch and this thing is used every single day and is sorely missed when it is down for maintenance.  Kind Regards, ~ Stan

      By doncaron
      Hello everyone! 
      First of all I would like to thank you for the help with my timing problem, it was the chain. Now I’m looking for the part number for the wet clutch baring.  I’ve been looking for it but my side by side is a 2022 t-boss 550 and it’s not the same as a 2021. Can anyone help me please?
      thank you in advance again.
