Miami 1988. - LSU had a decent team and the electricity was thick hanging in the air. You could feel it. Then the rain came! Not just rain but a monsoon. And we shite tge bed and get blown away.

Alabama 1987 - filmed Everybody’s All-American. During the game. The energy was off because of it. The rhythm was off and we lose.

Hondas have by far the least maintenance issues out of any of them. They don’t give you enough power to break anything and design it to where you won’t enjoy using it, so the hours stay low.

That’s the funniest thing I’ve read so far.

I’ve had a Honda bike since 1983. I had an ‘84 125M traded for a ‘94 300; then traded for ‘00 Rancher; and then traded for a ‘10 Rancher that I still have. This last Rancher has been living inside my shop its whole life, and never ever been abused. But it has weird electrical issues, so I have to keep a battery maintainer on it or it won’t shift gears when I’m driving it.

I thought about getting another Honda but your choices now are either all automatic or foot shift, and they are nearly 10K. I have a tricked out lifted heavily modified Jeep that I only paid 11K for, and my Ranger I have almost 26K in it with all the upgrades and goodies. I just can’t justify it. But as for side by sides, when the Honda dealer points you towards the Polaris, you really have to listen.

No mention of Kawasaki?

I forgot to say that the reason I didn’t get a Kawasaki. My Dad had an old Mule and I had NO features. No power steering, no nothing, including no power. He had tons of electrical issues particularly because there was no keyed bus panel on it. Mounting a winch and light bar were also problematic and required some welding fabrication to make that happen. Now his was bottom of the line model so I can’t blame the manufacturer. It was definitely a work horse tipping out at 26 mph. But he took it to Mena with us and and went everywhere everyone else went. I was shocked. He too upgraded to the Ranger 1000 (non XP).

The Can Am dealership sells some Kawasaki’s and I looked at one similar to what I wanted then when I was shopping, but they were steering me to Can Ams and CF Motos. For some reason, I just didn’t get a warm fuzzy about it. They just seemed like they were a side note. Another dealer had Kawasaki’s but they were primarily a Honda dealer and they kept steering me to a Pioneer.

Having said all that when I go to these mud events (basically babysitting and spectating while the kids go swimming with their bikes) I see only a handful of Kawasakis. Considering how tough they are, that surprises me. I’m glad you like yours.

Last Fall I bought a Polaris Ranger 1000 XP. I love it. I added a whole bunch of accessories and it’s super nice. I personally installed apple carplay, sound bar, I can put OnX on the screen, etc. they come stock with a winch, I installed a light bar, windshield, steel doors, etc. I have no issue with it. I didn’t lift lift, just put 30” Zilla’s for mud and I use the bone stock tires for Summer / non-muddy applications. I use it more for working on the farm, but occasionally I’ll go hit the mud parks with the kids and grands (not like they do).

When I was shopping, I looked long and hard at the CF Moto UForce 10 which has a bunch of nice features but I was afraid of the brand. I was more comfortable with the Polaris. Plus my son-in-law is a certified Polaris & Honda mechanic.

I did look at the Honda Pioneers but I was concerned that if you broke something you had to pull the motor vs change a belt.

I also looked at Can Ams but it seems like the trend is to either be all in on them or shy away from them. Most of the folks I know avoid them and don’t recommend. I know others that is all they ride. No one not even the salesman could explain why I’d want to buy one.

In the end, for me it boiled down to Polaris vs CF Moto vs Can Am. So I went with the easiest fix for me. Polaris.

Since then, everyone I know are now grabbing those CF Moto Uforce 10’s. They are everywhere. They’re priced cheap too. But are they? I don’t know.

I was just curious about peoples opinions about the different brands and why they like one over another. Just curious. Not trying to start fights I’m just asking. I’ve already made my bed, and I’m happy. Peace out.

Refresh my memory. Who’s this Brian Kelly fellow again?

I remember when GMC’s were way better looking than Chevys from the grill and that’s all I drove for a long time. But I have to admit GMC went to the paw-paw old man look with all that chrome and old man styling. I’m surprised it doesn’t come with double step ups. Ironically they load up the interior with stuff no 80 year old will have a clue how to operate.
The poor salesman will get inundated with phone calls from their old customers “I can’t get my 40’s channel on the Xm or my grandkid hooked her phone up to the stupid thing and now mine won’t work. Or how do I get my map on that screen again? Yep those poor bastards at GMC have really done something great. lol.

I’m still sticking with Ford.

Yeah I know their names I just don’t waste time learning them or their spelling. Black red whatever I know what team is what. It’s Been a minute since I saw season 2 so I can’t remember all that shite.
I loved GOT but HOD is t as good in my opinion. But also I watched GOT after all the seasons aired which made it make more sense without years between seasons.

Naval battles were so close up I couldn’t tell which team was whipping who. Then the whole crap with seasnake and bitchfist and for what was all that about?

Then the girl huffing and puffing and moaning and griping and saying “no Sheepstealer no” over. And. Over. Got irrationally annoying. Like why did she bring an untrained dragon to a fight who destroyed like both sides?

And then there was the dark haired prince dude (sorry I’m terrible with names. GOT taught me not to care about characters since they all die ) locked his Mom in her castle? By what authority? And then he goes and gets his dragon and himself killed. Way to go kid. Your plans were stupid every single time you dumb little bastard.

I think it’s way harder to film naval battles and be able to see anything. It seems however that the red team lost bigly at that battle.

And that was just the first episode.

I swear if Carter shows up drunk and throws a bulls head off the wall at the Cattleman’s Ball, I’m done. But I think at this point the Red Queen could use a Rip right now. (Sorry Dutton Ranch bled into review. Still pissed off about both episodes I suppose).

in for in
I mean in dammit
in o sweat this mitherduxkkng phone
