nosbusa 10-23-2012 11:26 PM

water is a form of snow..........

SBA800 10-24-2012 02:24 PM

the wrong form though!

its nice and chilly today. slowly getting to the point where it will snow and not rain.

nosbusa 10-25-2012 01:57 AM

What happened?

SBA800 10-26-2012 08:24 PM

long story short

-trailering sled into dealer.
-20 miles into the trip, freak snow storm and crazy winds
-highway is shit from summer patching they did.
-series of events lead to trailer swaying back and forth crazily
-sheared the safety chain, and came off the ball
-i managed to slow it down and get it under control, but it fell off the ball.
-trailer then proceeded to roll into the ditch.
-everything was 100% fine
-i drove into the ditch, rehooked it up, and drove outta the ditch.

Holy Phuck!!! :eek:

SBA800 10-28-2012 05:36 PM

haha yeah, was pretty crazy. but all is well. sleds in at the dealer, waiting to hear back,
so hope its all warranty. cause i cant afford a new shock right now.

SBA800 11-03-2012 09:39 PM

heard back, its all covered under warranty. they're just waiting on parts. woo hoo.

nosbusa 11-05-2012 01:02 AM

just make sure to connect it up right when you pick it up.......

SBA800 11-05-2012 01:19 AM

hahaha damn it busa it was hooked up right!

but ill probably just throw it in my dads 5 ton again, or steal my brothers truck.

it would fit in my trucks bed, but ive got that storage box in there so now it wont fit.

heck iys sposed to snow 5-8 inches this weekend. maybe ill just ride it home.

nosbusa 11-05-2012 01:09 PM

or you can wait for a storm and just ride it home......

89suburban 11-07-2012 04:08 PM

Were getting 2-5 inches tonight.

SBA800 11-08-2012 10:48 PM

well its sposed to snow 5-11 inches this weekend.
yeah, thats a big difference between 5 or 11 lol.
will see how much we get. im hoping for the 11.

nosbusa 11-09-2012 12:32 PM

rain here means snow to the east....... we got a little on our local mountain tops

89suburban 11-09-2012 03:41 PM

lol gooder. its a word i made up. im THAT cool.



anyways,

I've had my sled since October 2011. and I finally had a REAL first ride. none of the short slow stuff ive done in the past.

havent had it maxxed out on speed yet, but ive got a max of 86 on the display.

the video is kinda shitty since i had the camera mounted a touch to low. but its all trial and error with this kinda stuff. next time ill place it higher.

but, if you're bored and wanna watch it, here ya go.
