88 Octane just hit $4.11/gallon here in Utah. Much like someone else said, we're just sucking it up. We have limited our RV and camping trips for this year though. Where we'd usually head out 4-6 times over the summer, we may only do 2 this year (we already did our first over Memorial). I'm also con...

Heading up a hill, hit deep snow, plow through, but get stuck mid-way up. Nearest tree is about 15' further than the winch cable will reach, so I pull out the ro...

In addition to last month's damage $800 (rear axle, carb. rebuild, oil), now we're looking at:...

Glad you're back. My quad (Brute Force) is STILL in the shop. Last quote was $900, after paying $800 a few weeks ago. Seems there are metal chains that drive the cam, bottom-end, etc. that are "excessively worn out". 2.5 weeks and counting (after a previous 2 weeks waiting). I hope to get my quad ba...

Final update on these new style Kolpin's: Went riding today in Logandale, NV, with full sunshine, temps in the mid 70's and after parking the quad to lunch, I could hear (fairly loud) the plastic expanding (violently). Decided to move the quad into the shade, took the container off the rack and allo...
