Food at the Mexican place downtown is just fine. Service less so. Might make sense to snack beforehand so you don't starve to death waiting for your meal.
-
Pfft.
You have been to my house. Nothing outside my windows but deer, foxes, and the FBI. No worries.
Back to sun dancing.

Indeed, I am dancing the sun dance like a monster.

Yeah. Went through an angle drive here too. Quite a noisy event. Might be happening again, or I might just be paranoid. Easily the most unreliable piece of crap I have ever purchased. Brake failure light is on again after 4 repairs. Lots of fun, though, and met some great friends.
2015 here, and extended the warranty 3 years. Purdy sure my luck runs out June/July this year.
There was a recall on the angle drive? I don't remember that.
Well, yes, that SOB is spendy. And, that doesn't include labor. Labor involves multiple cavemen, sledge hammers, propane torches, and lots of French. Many of us are purdy sure it is not a Polaris only part, but nobody yet has been able to xref it.
Good luck.

You are being silly. I appeared once in the 2018 calendar, and 3 times in the 2019. Never missed a track day, and even invited you to join me sharing runs. I can do 1000+ miles in a single run, good from 7 degrees to 107 degrees. Have the self control to not burn down my sling after the brake failure light for the 5th time - currently on (really, really, really pissed about that).
Ford Fusions rock. I have 2.
More of a minivan guy are you?
-
I like you and I don't like most people. LOL! Wife has a Ford Fusion AWD with the turbo V6. I have a lot of respect for that vehicle.
Oh yeah. Now, I understand why we are friends. We are kindred spirits.
Repeating myself, but we do need to hookup again. I am guessing you are a no for Clarksville. But no reason we cannot hookup another time. 30 minutes from your place to mine. Would be delighted to host you and yours in my house again anytime. Any my house is baby friendly. I love babies, though these days on the condition that they are NOT MINE.
And we can chat up Fusions by other comms - I have 2 in my stable. Love 'em.

Picking on me, are y'all?
I ain't going to Clarksville to see Slingshots. I have one, and for quite some time. If I want to see a sling, I can just peek into my garage.
I am going to Clarksville to see my friends, who I miss terribly. If I show up in an unboosted sling, thoughtful 4 door family sedan, oil burning Yugo, or helicopter, It doesn't matter. While not everyone likes me, everyone remembers me. When I show up, it is officially a party - I have many references for that assertion.

You do realize you can go faster on three wheels - less weight
Pfft again.
Twice the weight, twice the hp, twice the torque. I can seriously hustle down the road. And, a generous back seat for serious baby makin'. Plenty of room for 3 wheels and 4 wheels in my stable.
And, ahem, less weight depends on who is driving...
Anyway, counting the days. Can't wait. Seriously need a recharge.
-
Pffft.
Will I be the only one posting that is not boosted? Maybe I DO need to post on 4 wheels. My V6 Ford Fusion can hustle just fine. None of all-y'all are getting away from me on a public road, if I am in that car, unless the cops stop me first.
-
Thanks Big Boy
Hang in there dude. I will be there, and if you want the red tag, you will get it. Believe that.
-
Finally got off my sorry ass and booked a room (lakeside, of course, where the big dogs hang).
Other than snow, nothing will stop lovely bride and I from posting. Hmm. Actually, snow will see us post on 4 wheels... We will not be denied seeing our friends.
Can't wait!

E,
I'm back in town now. But, with our 4 month old son free time is hard to come by. Looking at going over to Lewis' house soon to work on his Ram. Maybe we could set up a wrench day and get some of the crew together.
Dude! Been there, done that, retired from that. My youngest turns 23 today. Grandkids, 6 & 3.
That I haven't seen you but once in the last year is a crime. A boat across the river, then maybe a 30 minute walk. No excuses for either of us.
Lewis has a Ram? Since when? I gave him an assignment 6 months ago, and he failed. Time for a wood shampoo. We can wrench day at Chateau E as well. My boys tried their best to clean me out of tools, but I still have a few.
We are all silly close. Let's do something.
-
Well we are only 3 weeks away and today is the first nice weather we have seen in a long time. Hope to hook up with Marty AKA "Designer" and test some runs for Uncorked.
Designer leads the fruit loops rides. No thank you. Bride loves shopping with him & his bride, though.
Hit a bad patch here, and so feeling a bit down. Need to see my friends for a recharge. Only 3 weeks? Wish it was tomorrow.

Would your wife yell at me please?
I know Jdin and bride very, very well. Bride of Jdin is a charming young lady, and I love her to bits. But, this man's intuition says to me don't take anything for granted. If you are not man enough to deal with your own bride for a boost, you are not man enough to deal with Bride of Jdin . And, Mrs Jdin just might tag team with my bride - just for blood sport, in which case you would really, really be sorry, and the subsequent estrogen storm with your bride..., ... and still not boosted.
Careful for what you wish.

BradshawsSS and I will be at Brewers and for the welcome dinner. We will also be there Saturday and Sunday
Yay! See you Friday at dinner!

Wassup neighbor!
Here in Virginia, blue will get you in serious trouble. Red will get you in trouble. And, for some reason which is not understood by me, green will get you in trouble. Such that I usually reek of alcohol, no silly light games for me. The best deal you get with a LEO is if you don't encounter them.
Another data point that the best mod is NO MOD (copyright hrmiracle ).

Pfft. Silly all you.
My lovely bride bought birth control pills. Wonder why?
-
Do a couple group rides so she can see some mods, ask her what she likes and thinks,... make it her idea,.. the rest is history.
Yeah, that's no joke. Ask my wallet.

Now, I am really angry. That is without a doubt your awesome garage. So, yes, I yield again that the pics are real.
But...
How is it that Bu11sh1t dude was in town AND I WAS NOT INVITED. Thought we were friends. Snif... Sometimes I think folks are only nice to me because my beast is the only one left un-boosted, and all-y'all get curious 'bout what a stock sling looks like.
If I had feelings, they would be hurt. But, I don't have feelings, so no harm done.
