Recently moved my plane to a grass strip I'd flown in and out of multiple times with my neighbor. 2nd flight landing right at dusk. When I lowered the nose after touching down, I saw 4 or 5 deer standing 2/3rds the way down the runway. Luckily, I was able to get stopped long before I got to...

One automatic in the driveway, the 20 Colorado. Miata, all four bikes, and the Jeep are all manual. We ditched the CVT CanAm Ryker. Boring.

One of my "Thank god it wasn't me" moments came when a King Air F-90 taxied by with out governor on board. Then stopped. Poor line guy had to run out and put the gas caps back on. He never put them back after fueling, and the pilot missed it too. Guess who saw it first?

My wife, the UNLV law grad, found a foot thick book of Oklahoma law dating from 1941. Quickly dropped $25 to buy same. I never saw someone so exited. Jury composition, Oleo laws. Strange stuff indeed.

I'm a little late to this one. Young lady down the road has the S-40. We call it, and her Thumper. 18k miles and no real problems. Loves it.

Used to sell a bunch of the wiring pass through connectors on the NAGS transmissions up to about 08 I think. Second on the connector plate for the solenoids. 9336A is the Mopar tool # for the transmission fluid. Basically a cable style dipstick. Some dealers carry them for shop customers.

Not far from the homestead in SW OK Not the newest in the stable. 400 & change yesterday social distancing with 8 friends.

Can't complain about riding in Ks. Stay off the interstates and enjoy the scenery. Except the freaking giant grasshoppers in SW Kansas. they taste NASTY!

Me and my friends talked to some 5 to 6k driving age kids about motorcycle awareness last year, plus several trucking companies, civic groups, etc. We had another 8k scheduled this spring, pre covid crap, about that many this fall. I figure talking to others about awareness beats the crap outta...

Best thing about the MFS course is you are using someone else's 250cc bike. My standard advise is to take the course, then go try on all the bikes for size. As far as the wife, my (then) took the MSF course when I took a refresher. It cost $5800 for her to take it. She went out the next week...

Supposedly the Seth Wadley dealerships are selling out of hats because of this. $3k plus worth since Friday.

State Farm has become the anti Christ.. Progressive ain't much better. Geico has been amazing with my motorcycles but they have increased premiums for the last 3 years, with a new excuse every year. With 7 bikes, that's getting painful. Cars remain the same or drop slightly. On the other hand...

We do. My GMC had the 10k change interval. I bought the Dexos and GM filters at work, changed by one of my customers. Engine is still clean 8 years and 14 changes later. My wife babies the Jeep. She rides her Street Glide harder.

My 2019 Jeep oil life monitor says 8K between changes. Dealer sticker says 5k. Using Mopar branded synthetic.
