@Bill Martin I must admit that image of me would be quite disturbing 
and I get your point - I would be highly offended. Guess that’s why they make chocolate and vanilla ice cream
Bill... let me ask this then as I find it interesting you would be offended. I wouldn't be offended... I could say I'd find it disturbing, but what the hell do I care that someone wants to make an ass out of themselves. No?
@Bill Martin... LOL... sorry, would you be offended if I actually laughed out loud at that mental image... wow, I can't unsee that.
Would I be offended, nope. I would think you are mentally retarded and I'd go shop at the other end of the mall until I knew you had been taken away. Would I be offended if you did it in my driveway? Nope... but you better know how to run with your pants down as I do believe the buckshot is faster than you for being on my property. The only thing that could piss me off is if you come up and smack me across the face... but then you may end up in the hospital. I don't really get offended at much. I've seen some really f'up stuff in my life.
Now do I find it offensive the 9/11 attacks. Absolutely and we needed to go after the people involved and cram a missile someplace as they came into our back yard to hurt innocent people just for the hell of it. Do I think we should have gone to Iraq? Hell no and it destabilized the entire region and we're still paying for it. I don't go looking for a fight, but I know how to finish one.
If you want to go to the mall and set yourself on fire and run around naked dressed in a flag or not, who the hell am I to say you can't do it. You impact my home or my family (and 9/11 was such an event)... you and I will have issues. I don't much care what you do to yourself...
I agree with your “live and let live” outlook and you can turn off the NFL. However, where does it stop?? Let’s say I think pants are offensive and personally objectionable to me. I go to the local mall where your wife/daughter shops to protest removing my pants, throwing the American flag on the floor, pissin on it then setting it on fire shouting “Death to America”. Is it not his right to protest his personal injustice to his thinking??? I think you might find that scenario quite disturbing!! Just because you have the right does not mean you should - the NFL is showing disrespect no matter how anybody spins it !!! After all Hillary supports them - THERES YOUR SIGN!!
Everything still comes down to common sense though. I hate the fact that our schools are so PC that there are no winners or losers. It's not life as when you go apply for a job, you aren't entitled to get it. There is a winner and a looser and the one who worked there ass off hopefully gets it. People who work hard at things SHOULD be rewarded. As you brought her up... everyone is offended that Hillary used a personal email server... "Lock her up, Lock her up"... sure... and yet no one says anything about the former Republican cabinet and Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice and that fact that they were using personal email servers... and then the stupidity of the current administration that after all that went down, now they are getting caught for the same thing. Really? It's offensive that some people can be so stupid and then we elect them to the white house... Stupid is what stupid does. But yet why are we so "offended" that Hillary did it? Was it stupid? Sure, absolutely. What even more stupid is just about lynching someone for something and then doing the same thing yourself and think you should be treated differently. ... but somehow it's not the same when people we like do it... must be different then... somehow... maybe...

Damn straight. But also keep in mind that society has become too sensitive and believe that we can't offend anyone... hell with that. No matter how hard I try, you can find someone to disagree with you on anything. If you want to sing it, sing it. Don't give a damn who I piss off unless it's my wife... I have to live with her. On the other hand, why is it that "WE" are so pissed off at an NFL players for taking a knee? Isn't it the same thing... standing up for what you believe? Why are we so insulted that someone has another message good or bad that we have to be insulted all the time? Live and let live if you ask me. I think it may be silly personally, but I respect someone else's opinion to do what they want. Stop crying about it. Insulting to our armed forces? I know they aren't taking a knee to disrespect our arm forces and even if they were, I'm not going to stone someone because I disagree with it. I also have the right to stop watching NFL games if I choose to too. This woman can sing all she wants to whomever she wants to. That's why my iPone has ear buds and a volume on it if I don't want to listen. Hopefully she's a good singer. I'll join her and probably ruin the tune, but it was for a good cause... in my opinion. What's insulting to me is farting in a plain when you have assigned seats or not showing for a month and then farting on a plain... really anything with a fart in small places...
@Bill Martin ... "Where does that leave us??? Trillions of dollars further in debt and we the taxpayer don’t seem to be any better off. Until We the People wise up and vote out every elected official and keep doing so until things change for the better - it won’t!!"
Couldn't agree more. The issue is both Republican and Democrat parties SUCK. I'm NOT a big fan of our two party system and what it has become. But I'm also tired of the fear mongering that goes on between them and the stupid people that can't think for themselves or look at history as an example of what not to do. I'm an Independent as I too have no place interjecting thought into either party. Can we start a new party ... SlingShot or bust? It's got to be better and shore in shit going to spurn on the economy with the amount of money we spend on upgrades. 
Fair enough @Bill Martin. I'm not even going to disagree with any of that. But I'll send you the other copies too...
and PS... we don't need "generate billions to pay down the debt"... we need Trillions. It's like saying you need to pay your SS off and open a lemonade stand to pay it off... not going to happen without other sources and a tax cut for the wealthy isn't going to do it. And I'm not against a tax cut, just do it responsibly. Giving the middle class 1.2% while you take a 10% one... how is that right?
Sounds like your kinduva libertarian to me and that is not a bad thing. I am a life long Republican cause I got no place else to go with a viable candidate for me. I like what you say about Obamacare - it really sucks if you have been successful!! I, like you, believe in personal responsibility for the choices you make. The liberal Dems wanna make decisions for us that will take more and more out of our pockets and give it to the slackers. The Rep talk a good game but don’t seem smart enough to get out of their own way. Now we are 8 years moving left now looks like at least of 4 years undoing all of that. Where does that leave us??? Trillions of dollars further in debt and we the taxpayer don’t seem to be any better off. Until We the People wise up and vote out every elected official and keep doing so until things change for the better - it won’t!!
Nothing they are doing is "helping" the people and shore in hell not the middle class. Tax cuts? What the hell? What do YOU do when you have a loan you have to pay for? Do you say "I think I need to decrease the amount of money I bring in". WTF? We were balanced when Bill Clinton was in office and spent all of this in the war, then fighting the fight to not have another great depression. Did we have to spend all that was spent with Obama... who the hell knows. But what do we have here and now? Debt. Why are we giving the top 1% a 10% tax cut when we have TRILLIONS to pay back? The only way to keep the economy moving forward is with the middle class spending money. This is basic economics people! So how do you pay down trillions of dollars while keeping the middle class afloat and able to keep spending? You give the middle class a small tax cut and you keep the money coming in from the people who can afford it the most like the top 1%. Trump is going to kill this country in a vary short period of time. So yes... you asked if I believe if we would have been better off with Hillary at the wheel... UNFORTUNATELY... more and more each week I do believe this and it sickens me. Both parties need to start running this country responsibly as right now... this aint it. I did for just a little bit of time believe Trump would be the best thing for this country. Now... I'm tired of the Trump show and what it's costing this country.
PS... and I'm NOT for taxing the top money makers MORE. I like my money and I'm sure they do to. What I'm saying is that they shouldn't be able to pay LESS than we all do. I think it unfair to say as most liberals do that they should pay more because they can afford it... that wrong. But they shore in the hell shouldn't be paying less and in most cases, that is what is happening.
O', sorry... while I'm puking all my views up... I am FOR ACA. As a friend of mine said he hated it, I looked at him and said "but you were happy paying 15-20% more for what you had per year?" The bottom line is SOMETHING had and HAS to be done. It was NOT perfect and has many issues and MUST be fixed. De-funding it isn't an answer. We have a GREAT country and yet we rank 37th in the world for health care? How fricken pathetic. A blanket insurance for all levels out the playing field and having the ability to have a secondary insurance on top of that and a choice of that insurance is a perfect solution just like several other countries have. But why won't we do that? It's because of only two words by the way.... "Insurance" and "Lobbyists". ... but that's just my opinion.
@Bill Martin. Sorry for the verbal puke I'm about to do, but I'm a bit like @BONES and tired of it all...
I think there is a balance to everything. I am VERY much for capitalism and hate big government. Don't like regulations. It's kind of like seat belt laws... I ware my seat belt as I believe the data behind waring one makes it a smart thing to do. But I also don't like to be told you must ware one. If people want to not ware one... so be it. I call that natural selection and maybe increase the average IQ a little in this country. The issue is that when the stupid people get sick and expect that they are entitled to free health care because they didn't want to pay for anything but cheeper insurance with very little benefits, then sucks to be you. There is a reason and place for mandatory health care as I don't have to pay for some dumb ass who didn't want to pay for insurance. There is a balance, that is all I'm saying. But why should my family pay $25K for health insurance UNDER ACCA when others get it for free? And just so I'm clear, I believe in medical across the board and a flat tax. This doesn't make me a Liberal, it just levels out the playing field as I'm tired of paying $25K for health insurance per year with no discounts because I don't qualify for shit as I've worked my ass off and been successful. Supreme court... well, that's a shit storm as I don't feel as though I should HAVE TO live by the same values of the last 200 years as I just want to be left alone to live how I want to. I'd be more than happy to hear what those values are and pick the ones I want for myself. All I have to do though is look at the people who go to church and know that they aren't living their lives as the good book suggests and see the hypocrisy. My brother was "born again" and watches porn all the time saying "God knows I'm week and will forgive me"... he's a hypocrite. Period. I don't want anyone telling me how to live. I believe in Pro Choice not because I believe in abortion... on the contrary, I most certainly do not and I choose life. But I shore in crap don't want anyone telling me I'm wrong nor will I say you are wrong for your views. Leave me the hell alone and I'll leave you alone. We are too regulated in this country for everything and why... we must have more stupid people than the rest of the world... must be. I like my guns too and eating fatty foods, but I know both can kill me in excess and I don't need 40 + guns or 3 square meals of lard and I choose not to have or do either.
Hell No, another clone of Obama, no Fing way. A lying, cheating, nasty hag @ the helm, NO WAY. IF LIBERALS AND DEMS WOULD SHUT THERE MOUTHS AND JUST NOT FIGHT EVERYTHING, MAYBE THINGS COULD GET BETTER! Imagine the click shit storm they were trying to create... Hellary, Obama, Bernie, MAlloy etc...HELL NO!
I will say yeah, Trump talks a little to much , but he says it, weather blunt or in his own manner, he says it how it is....Obama talked a talk and did Shit!
If CNN stopped talking BS and pumping people full of crap, if people could just take a step back and think , if people could accept like we had to for 8 BS years of Obama then Maybe, just maybe things could start to get better.... I'm starting to HATE PEOPLE IM so sick of crap....
Just step back and think what can you/we do to make things better...think as an individual and just try to do your part to make this "America" better....
Bones... I respect your take, but if you think the Republican party is any different, then you've had your head in the sand. None of the parties are any better when it comes to ethics or accomplishing crap. I'm just tired of the "holier than thou" attitude of the Republican party and I'm ashamed of them. Both parties are hypocrites, but I'm sick of listening to issues with emails while they are ALL DOING the same thing. Doesn't make it right, but WTF? Don't criticize one politician for 5-10 things while you're doing the same damn thing. It's Trump saying Obama plays to much golf or the Republican party saying Obama's a socialist as he signs executive orders and yet they do so more than all of them. They are liars and cheats every last one of them. Why isn't the president told he's got a budget to spend for travel as we all live with budgets, why can't he when he's spending my money? They (both parties) need to start living like other Americans and not living off the backs of them. I'm sorry you hate people (one of my wife's favorite sayings), but if Congress became "For the people", things would be better. I'm hoping the Republican party get's their head out of their ass end and become "For the people" instead of "For the Republican Party, By the Republican Party". Get some progress done!
So your saying we would have been better off with Hillary at the wheel ???
In short... yes. We haven't even begun to see the amount of shit storm that Donald is going to F'Up. I'd settle for the status quo for 4 more years than to screw up everything due to ignorance, hatred, and fear mongering. In this case, it's the devil I knew compared to the devil I knew that could be unleashed and he continues to prove that correct on so many levels.
Fact #1: If there is an average IQ out there, then that means that 50% of the population is stupid.
The issue with our politics is that it seems the American people have about a 2 year... possibly 6 month memory of what has happened in the past. GWBush promised a tax break in his second term and won the election (albeit not entirely on that)... and in our area, our school taxes went up 20% or so because the funding got cut.
Another Fact.... the government doesn't give you ANYTHING back. Anyone who voted for Trump thinking he'd give you a 1.2% tax cut and didn't think he wouldn't take a 10% tax cut himself fits into fact #1 and not on the plus side. I'm sure in the hell looking at my 1.2% tax cut if it ever happened as a down payment on my 5% increase in living expenses as they'll cut something that the general public actually uses like Fire and Police.
Trump is the swamp. He's not draining shit. It's amazing to me how stupid people can be and the capacity of believing total BS just because an orange dude with white eyes says so on TV. Stop being sheep and realize that not everyone believe nor should believe what we do. It's our strength as Americans to have difference in opinions and recognize the fact that our service man and woman put their lives on the line to be able to voice those opinions.
Had a check engine light come on and then back off. Had to take the trike in for a leaky tire so asked them to check the codes. Had 4-5 different codes and the dealer had no clue what they were for. Just cleared them and shook his head saying "There's just way to many sensors on this thing"... LOL. Just as long as they pass the state inspection and it's running well.... I guess. But this is one of the reasons I want to be able to see what the errors are myself.
I have not seen anywhere where it monitors tire pressure. Let me check the manual
Says on their web site: "Advanced Vehicle Data: Monitor individual tire pressure, fuel range, miles to your next oil change, current altitude, average fuel economy, heading, Bluetooth® status, and much more"
Yeah, but I'm bald, fat, and lazy... maybe not in that order. The tire pressure is just one nice thing it offers, I just want to know what kind of sensors it connects with. The huge reason why I am even looking at it is the integration with the computer and getting codes off the machine without taking it to the dealer and the fact that it's waterproof. Can't see spending all that money for something that isn't water proof and then having issues. Much rather spend twice the price and be done with it. Tire pressure is just another nicety.
I really like the ride command system. I used the GPS it is OK, but the info is awesome and the stereo is great!! All I. All a vast improvement. Touch screen is a super feature as well
@SlingRider... I see the ride command can monitor tire pressure. I see no documentation on the unit so far, but do you know if that is using a specific system? Will it pick up on TPMS systems used internal to the tire or does it have to use some $500 system from Polaris? Thanks!
AND WHAT THE HELL IS A "FOUND EASTER EGGS" GOD DAMN IT....
OK, so what's the consensus then? We all agree that the darn thing is expensive. The plus side is that it's waterproof and the fact that it gives you information about the sensors on the trike. Anything else I'm missing? The sensor readings are a HUGE plus with me. Is waterproof and sensor readings worth the money though...? Just not sure if spending $500 + on a double DIN system is the end all be all either. I do agree that Nav is best left to my phone as the maps are always up to date and with the way Google maps is building in the accident and traffic delays is awesome which you won't get from a NAV system that doesn't have cell connectivity. Anything else coming from the unit? I understand better FM signal... cool, but I use my phone for 95% of my music as I'm tired of listening to radio commercials and obnoxious used car sales people. I take it that it comes with a new head unit, and a new stereo too. Does it have the amp built in or do you need an amp? Does it separate Rear and Front speaker with sub? Anyone know?
