Nah, my friend Mr. Go Ogle is just really quick at finding stuff if you can remember the slightest shred of details about it. My friends Copy & Paste handle the rest without breaking a sweat.

I told her the other day I was gonna trade her in for a 2001 model year wife lol. She didnt think that was as funny as I did..
Yeah they don’t have much of a sense of ha ha with those comments. Haha. My wife will let me go anywhere and do pretty much anything. And after 30 years, she knows me pretty well. There isn’t too much anybody could say to her she doesn’t already know. Haha. I think I’ll keep her too.

Thank You!
Hi Smitty. I was thinking your friend Andy had a scary ride. I looked at the Mule. Just couldn’t do it. I don’t know how they are, but my brothers RZR is scary going down hill. You’re not supposed to let the belt freewheel so you have to touch the gas to get the belt not to freewheel. Against everything you were thought. Another brother has a Can-Am 1000 special edition something, and that slows down by itself. But that was like $30,000 . So it should. The 500 , if I shift to L going down hill, it just crawles. You can’t do that with a belt, without hitting the brakes. I really hope Andy’s blindness is temporary. Keep me informed. Please. Thanks.

Come on over to the 700 forums. Maybe you can wake them up. It's like a tomb in there.
Ok, give me a little time tonight to have some beers, so I can invent bad things to say about the P7, Watch that Forum later, bet I can get them fired up, HA!

Nice. I’ve been debating on at least one. I’ve been worried since my first Honda windshield cracked at the top hinges. I worked with polycarbonate at work. Many times, even to teach other guys. New bit and no chips. Haha. Are your wipers power or hand power. They look good. Can hardly see them. If your windshield stays good, I’ll put one in. Haha. Good luck Mudder. I have a long handle squeegee that I can reach out my side and get over half. But it’s a pain in the ass. Better than nothing in the rain.

Hand operated (red knobs). Single hole, like how 18 inch goes to top of windshield. Hard to justify the higher price difference with my infrequent need. Edit: @trigger influence, never ends.
