Raning karts (dirt oval), and gaming (World of Warcraft). For you pistol guys, I had the chance to shoot a S&W 460. OMG, what a cannon!

I had that same engine in my last sled. It started out as a '04 RMK 600 and I swapped out the engine for a brand new 800cc VES engine with SLP single/can. That 800cc engine gets almost twice the gas mileage as my new 660HO engine - it sucks fuel like no other (5-6 mpg).

Old 600cc engine

No engine

New '05 800cc VES engine

Sled

Other then the truck I'm into dirt biking, camping, boating and skiing. We used to have a sled but my dad sold it a couple years ago. It would have been nice to have this winter since we got over two feet of snow. Last year my parents bought a brand new trailer and a boat. We got a wakeboard tower over the winter(the boat's still at the dealer ship) so I'm going to try to wakeboard this summer. I'll try to post some pictures of the toys later when I get home.

I have 7 Yorkshire Terriers,a wife, a 4700 sq ft home,I read, watch some TV,this BB,work 40-50 hrs a week,I don't have time for hobbies except the truck,attending a few car shows,trying to furnish this house,and travel a bit(my in-laws have a condo in Alcopuco{sp}),and my family is in Tx and Ok.I used to fish and hunt a bit but have sold all the weapons I owned.I do collect old tech manuals and Chevy GMC tech books.Build a few models,collect some die-cast,antique luggage,wooden models,and unusual stuff.
I am slowly building up my woodworking tool collection also,I would like to be able to build some furniture.
Besides keeping the lawn I don't have time for much.

**Already Gone** · 03-23-2007, 05:28 PM

I spend time with the love of my life, my wife , we ride locally and have taken 2 week holidays on the GoldWing. This shot is from August 2003 on the Oregon Coast on our way to San Francisco. We also stopped in Spokane on the way and took in the Goodguys show.

I also have this disease of collecting Danbury and Franklin Mint diecast models. This is only a few as I have over 50 of them.
