Will you have the cash for the gas and speeding tickets after? *LOL*


I can think of many ways such a car could be justified. I would rather a bike myself though.
Would be a fine example to others of what good recovery can do for you.

Staying clean and sober and my recovery made this possible. 17 months ago I had nothing. Perhaps an early 18 month b-day gift to myself? Its either this, another truck, or a quad.

Does it run ok Mike, I mean, can you drive it on the street?

It looks like its in goodcondition in the photo. If its put together decent, and is managable on the street, I'd say go for it, otherwise, I vote QUAD!

I probably should have bought it. I bought a quad instead and have already gotten hurt on it.

I'd buy it if I knew for sure it would irritate someone. Also, it's nice looking machine. You only live once. Jim
