Default RE: How Come??

It is interesting to read what everyone has to say on this post.

All I know is $600.00 + in extra stuff came Monday, and for some reason I just had to order another $200.00 dollars more this morning, then another $75.00 tonight after I got home from work.

I think that I must be coming down with something. I think that I need some really nice warm weather to ride and get away from the house and the computer. Is it time to goto Myrtle Beach for Bike week yet?? How about now???

Bob

No because it just sat there and I never drove it since my "company" gives me a take home car with free fuel. Now I have the Harley and the "company" harley with free fuel, Im an idiot[:@] but I love them both. I've spent $2500 on the bike not includeing all the add ons that it had when I bought her and everyday check here I average a loss of $200 a month with ideas for you guys!

I have had some nice cars over the years but everyone one of them broke my heart or let me down at some point. I rode some of my bikes into the ground and I don't care now if I change the oil in my cars for 10k miles - My Harley I rub with special diapers - I spend at least 15-30 minutes every morning looking at my Harley book or the J & P catalog - I keep the Forum up as often as possible and day dream about what is next - I am sure it will pass but I hope it never does

Well if I could drive my Dodge while sitting outside on the hood wearing leathers and a helmet, I might spend some money on it.

All toys get the same treatment...it never ends....my cj has over 450 horse and will do wheel stands. I had it at the Car Craft Magazine Summer Nationals and it was a blast.

What do you use this Jeep for? You obviously have a lot of time and money into it, and it is definatly built for a reason. Is it built stricly for show?

Oh and to get back on topic I spend alot on my truck as well. I have well over 10K into my wheeler, and if I had it would love to drop another 7K worth of part's (off the top of my head). I do ALL of my own work, so that $$ number include's no labor. Here is a pic from one of my last trip's out. It now has a new cab on it (swaped the redneck way) and a new paint scheme.
