  1. We have a stamped concrete main floor with full house infloor and the wife wanted ac. We put in a mini split ( ac only) as we didn't need additional heat with infloor and a fireplace. I was concerned with it cooling the bedrooms and den at the front of the house and I was surprised. The master bdrm was down to 64 deg and the den was 68 deg. Now I don't have to listen to her complain about it's too hot in here lol. The 5K was worth the peace and quiet lol
  2. We are good to go for 8 months here on atvs/sxs and have a few areas for winter riding.
  3. That's pretty efficient!. We have infloor throughout run by a boiler and hooked up to 2-420"s. They have a monitor setup and when it pings them at 40% they come and fill which is every 3-4 weeks. Our cookstove has a separate 420 and they top it up every fall and it hardly uses any propane at all.
  4. I have friends that have the Maxx ceiling heaters and they work pretty good. I'm looking at getting a 28x40 garage built and haven't decided to go with infloor/boiler or ceiling/floor wallmount propane heater. That'll all come into play after I check prices
  5. We went out for a ride today. The trails were 9/10 for the most part. We did a bit of sightseeing, stopped for lunch at a warmup cabin and had a blast
  6. My buddy rode his sled over and we loaded our sleds and trailering 45 min north of here. The trails are pretty good there and should make for a fun day. The wife made sammiches and is filling the thermos with hot chocolate/ peppermint schnapps in the morning.
  7. I always give a good tip and there has been the odd exception over the years with either piss poor service or food that was plated and brought to the table that I wouldn't feed a dog.
  8. We have a shitload of freeloaders on the trails around here with horses, hikers and people walking their dogs in the summer. We slow down so we don't dust them and the fkn look you get from the unappreciative assholes is something else. We buy our permits and the atv/sled clubs maintain the trail. I've roosted a few sofar that won't move over.
  9. We've always went up to our camp on Boxing day from 2000 to 2016. We only had 1 or 2 times we had to use atvs to go in/out due to low snow or rain. The last four years we've had a good start around X-mas then the rain hits and fks everything up and and now it seems like it's happening in Feb as well.
  10. I took the short headers off and put full length, full exhaust and no catalytic. You could hear it alright.
  11. I've had a few old cars years ago. I had a 66 Chevy II, 67 Camaro SS , 69 Barracuda 340 FB, 73 Vega with a SB and they all did the A to B pretty quick. In 85 I bought a GT and thought wtf it's only half the HP of anything I had but it was a crazy car. The Goodyear Eagles were shit, the car was useless in rain and it would put you sideways in the first 3 gears.
  12. Oops! Shit I thought I had it right. You are correct. Memory isn't what it used to be.
  13. I think your correct on the Doonut! I think his name was Glen and had a son Denver. If I'm not mistaken.
  14. I had 2-2011 Sport 600"s and 2-2016 Renegade 600"s. I had the hanging idle on one of each and other than that no issues whatsoever.
  15. It's a Kenmore 6.5 years old. I think the power outtages have taken a toll on the board. The oven comes on but won't shut off unless you unplug it. The board is an Electrolux and somewhere around $3-350.00. The stove is in good condition so it's a reasonable fix vs buying a new one
  16. Our gas stove is on the blink and after checking everything narrowed it down to the control board. It's easy to replace but with it being a weekend it's a pita to get the part. Hopefully I'll find one tomorrow or it'll be a week before I get one. We can use the stovetop, air fryer, convection oven in the motorhome or the toaster oven lol. We won't starve
  17. I think he's gotta clear some of his attachments.
  18. Looking off a bridge north of my place looking down into the ravine
