Told ya you'd love it once it was on - it's a royal PITA to put on, but once on, the results are completely worth it!!!

No problem - just let me know when, and we can install it on a Sunday.

Am I the only one who likes their off-road trails, like I like my restaurants.... empty.


Don't get me wrong, it's nice to wheel (and dine) with friends, but there is nothing I hate more than being crowded.


... sorry, stressful day I'm a little grumpy.

Great...now I'm thinking about all the peaceful fun things I want right now...

Sorry you had a rough day I know there's a lot going on out there with the weather and all so you aren't the only one. My bad day was yesterday so I sympathize.
