Well I did have fun for sure
. I just tried to tell it like it happened. I took her out to where I board my horse and the people there are great. Shelley and Horst have kinda been waiting for me to get back and so they got a chance to drive it today. Shelley drove it first and did great and then Horst.

They were amazed (especially Horst) at where it would go. He had plowed some roads around the field with his loader and we went for a cruise around the property. When we took her off the road and through the burm we ended up straddling it for quite aways when Horst was driving and he kept waiting for us to get stuck...heck we were in 4 wheel drive High range ONLY. We went in for some tea and Horst just kept talking about the ability of the Pinz to keep going...it was funny
Then I introduced my horse Banjo to her and he seemed to think she would do ok. If I can't in with the Pinz I have Banjo.

I think you have more BALLS than Brains. I really respect that. It sounds like a hell of a trip I doubt I will ever get to do anything like that. But it would be fun.
P.S.
I hate stupid people and most work at jobs were they have to deal with the public. You always run into them when you are in a hurry and it takes longer to argue about it than it would have taken just to let me do it and get on my way.

Hey PINZTX - Anything is doable - hell I will take you on one of my trips if you really wanna. See all you have to have is the WANNA and you can do anything.
More balls than brains - I like that
.
I bought my 88 Yamaha Venturer Royale Motorcycle kinda the same way last august. Sight unseen just pics...bought her on ebay...flew to Tuscon...picked her up spent a couple of days there and got her ready and drove 4000 miles home in 3.5 days...now that was a trip.
Horizontal rain in the Tuscon area and all the way up to the grand ditch ooops canyon...I'm just sore cause the weather was so bad they closed the viewing area down so I could get down there, but maybe this summer.
How far is TX from Tuscon - I would like to go back there too and maybe start a some people there in my internet business then I have a place to go and visit my TEAM and it's HOT
Then maybe I could do a side trip to Texas anything under 2000 miles is a side trip for me....I promised Dennis I would see him this summer anyway.
LIFE IS SHORT SO LIVE IT
My dad used to say - Life is a gift and so many turn it back unopened.
THEN HE TOLD ME - open the damn gift and get livin otherwise you might as well take room 6 feet under.
SO WHAT DO YOU SAY THERE PINZTX - take a chance have some fun.
Sounds like we have to get together for some hog hunting with bows and bring a few of these fine gents on the site with us.
