Default Yeee-frickin-haaaw!!!

I finally,finally got to take the buggy's out for some serious riding today! Called my good buddy Ray, and told him screw the household chores for today lets go, and he was in! I've been really working my off on a big project at work and I needed a break. We loaded up the singles and headed over to BIG MAPLE FARMS for the day, and the place was jammin' with all types of machines out! and let me tell you there was more than ample amounts of mud with all the rain we've had hear lately! What a time!! and the more I use these "little monsters" the more impressed I get! and since we had the only ones in the park everyones was coming to us checking them out! even the RZR crowd was gawking at 'em! and no one could believe what all they would do! I even questioned a couple of "crazy" things we did, but the buggy's never even stumble at the task! and I still have a silly grin on my face recalling the day!!! P.S. pictures to fallow!

Good to hear you had fun. I love these buggys because you can have fun and not break the bank. The razor rzrs are cool but if you get it stuck good luck trying to push it out, and the price is crazy as far as I am concerned.
We just got back from the desert and it was 103 crazy hot!!! We came home a day early because it was hard to even think and the buggys ran hot. My wife held out as long as she could and last night at 11pm it was 88 degrees. The new gearing worked awesome 13/43 and new led light on my buggy. TOO HOT for riding in so cal desert!!!

I know the feeling Bear, that's exactly how I felt the first time I took the girls out to our local off road park with their carbide 150. I've been off roading my whole life with 4x4 trucks and I was amazed at what all a stock little buggy could do.

I am jealous Bear. I was hoping to take mine back out this weekend and break the new engine in some more, but unfortunately it rained all weekend. I wouldn't swap this little buggy for a rzr. These things are much more fun than a side by side.

Thats sweet bear. One of these years I will get mine out of the neighborhood and do some real riding. My wife has been working and I have an interview tomorrow so hopefully we will back on our feet soon.

@Johnny. You will have to give some details on the gearing. Inquiring minds want to know.

Default Awe shucks!

Thanks for all the replies guys I appreciate them! Slezman I sure Hope u get that job if its what u want! I finally finished the "project from hell" yesterday so I think I'm gonna get some home time for a week or so before I've got to go out on the next one! Hosed all the mud off the buggy's and discovered that the blue one is lacking brakes, so I'm gonna tear into it tonight, after the honey do's! Heck I was even smiling while I was getting the mud off, just thinking about how it got on there!!!

So bear you were muditating on the mud, I do the same thing too. Our trip last weekend was cut short due to the 106 temp. My autistic downs son can't handle the heat and even I was getting bad headaches and that is rare for me. So we might go to the high desert in two weeks about 3500ft were it is a lot cooler. The desert we usually go to is at 160ft and great for power but weather can be too hot or 40 to 70mph winds.

I had my windshield replaced on my 02 Silverado before the trip due to the pitting. Now it is like a new truck from the inside.

We have been out in the desert on a three day trip in 2008 and stayed in our trailer for almost 2 days because of 70mph winds, the last day it was perfect. That was the trip that took my windshield out.
