As a former SXS owner I guess I need to turn in my membership card and bow out gracefully. Or not...

Nope. But you do gotta remove (uncheck) the 700-2 from the ownership section of your Account Details ...

Had us a good storm yesterday. They said 80 mph winds. Lost power before dark.
Got my power back on about noon. Was getting pretty warm.

I see it’s hot down there. And smoky from Quebec.

This is what it is next few days. This coming week suppose to be a little cooler with rain chances.

We dodged storms few days ago. I'm glad too.

DRY heat...oven like. In 1972 when I was stationed at Luke AFB I saw 156 degrees inside my new light blue K20 Chevy long bed. It would turn chocolate into liquid. Can't wait!! We see 105-108 here but rarely. The property we are buying is at 3200' so not like Phoenix Valley and South. 91 is as warm as I have seen but will do up to 100 but not often reflected in 50 year temp records. Average snow fall...8" annually. We got over 90" last winter...still snow on the higher mountains. My tractor has A/C. RememberI grew up in Central Florida...95F and 90% humidity...this is SO MUCH BETTER!!

I sold my Pioneer 700 yesterday to a young logger with a wad of cash. Nice kid!! I plan to buy another Honda ATV once we get settled in the new land. I have a 300' hill with lots of hiding spots for rattle snakes on the property and huge wilderness area 8 miles or so to the NW. Mt Tipton is 8,000' so I need something that I can explore with...Like the Honda ATV you just bought...nice rig!! OR, a new model 500 but I bet it still has always locked rear axle too.

Nothing wrong with going back to a quad IMHO. If you’re not hauling passengers with you they are far cheaper.

Hey @Caper ! With all this talk about heat, maybe you can relate to this FJ40 photo I just found, best way to beat the heat when crusin’ in the Cruiser. Good memories, pre SxS days.

It only got to 100.7* today and around 31% humidity, so the feel like temp was like the real temp.

I took the roof off and went to the camp for a few days. No rain, but got really stuck in the trail. Had everyone pushing. I said don’t stand behind the back wheels. Of course two girls stood behind them both. I got out but they were covered from head to toe. They actually took their clothes off and went in the river. I think we laughed for the whole time down. We still laugh. I actually talked today about it with my wife. Up here the rust killed them. It was a great 4x4. I see them in the auction once and awhile on tv, most are $80 K plus.
Thanks Mudder

I was saying that to my wife today, then I remembered working on a New Minesweeper sitting on the slide being built. I was working on second level down doing cabins. It was like an oven or n the summer. I took a thermometer in one day, and it was 140 F, It was hot. Hard to keep working, but I did. 😊
Did it for 12 minesweepers. But a couple I was stadging chargehand. Then Joiner charge hand. Just walk around and answer questions and gab. 😊
