When he got out he went to trade school and did 47 years (39 at Chrysler) in tool and die. I'm the youngest of 3 boys. He gave all of us the opportunity to learn how to wrench from him.

We can only go north a short distance on sxs"s whereas atvs can continue on the rail trail. The club north of that point have applied for sxs usage and is pending. Fktards are running north of there and coming south on their trails which doesnt help. There was a meeting with the next township over with some residents pissed about atvs and sxs"s running the road and trying to quash the road allowance. They failed which is a good thing as everyone is on the road and not on the sled trail that goes across the driveways with a stop sign at every driveway.

One of my mistakes was not teaching my son more things like basic repairs and building. Growing up my father taught me all that which he learned from his father who owned a concrete company and did construction before that.

I had bought two MXZ 600 (carb) in 2011 for $7249 ea and only studded the tracks and got $5500 ea before I bought the Gades. I figure there's a buyer out there for everything lol.
