i dont know anything about it really. thought it was strange that they dont have google maps... are they trying to use bing maps or something?

Same tactic as Apple and their Apple Maps I suppose.
That is just apple being stupid apple

Rode my buddies 800 a good 20 miles last week and this thing roasts it from a seat of pants perspective. Top end he'll kill me. I am gear limited to about 85 although my speedo was beyond 90 today. Guess my clutches are set up right smile.png

I bought a tablet holder that fits into the CD slot for $19 to temporarily use it through the stock Esky stereo for audio. Figured I could try it out without being married. Not going to bother with the steering wheel controls for now although I have what I need for it. laugh.png

I flashed a custom rom called timurs rom, its built for in dash installs.  Its nice because once it detects power it turns on the screen and turns gps/wifi/etc on.  And its modified to charge at a higher rate to compensate for running gps and all that at once.  then when powers lost it goes into hibernation mode turning everythign off.  google play will handle most of my music except whats on usb sticks/hard drives.

Jesus Christ will resurrect
He's got his BMI royalty to collect
He's not the white fragile hippie
He looks and acts more like an indignant ICE-T
Jesus Christ is coming back
He wants to kick Mel Gibson's ass
Superstar, The Passion of
He wants his money, not your love

He's been kickin' 2000 years
He's fixed a lot of sports
and drank a million beers
Some ecstasy, a thin white line
He says designer drugs beat the hell out of wine
Jesus Christ on vacation
Spreading mass sacrilegion
"Sex and drugs, we abstain"
He thinks Christians are insane
They don't know love,
they know fear and moral hauteur
Scare tactics I never taught
"If you're gonna look to me,
better get rose colored shades,
Cuz what you see is what you get"

car shopping this month. looking for something like a buick regal w/ the 3.8l. checked out a buick century today. anyone familiar with the 3.1l's reliability. current car is an 00 olds intrigue. i got 216k out of it and I would buy another but I dont feel like gambling on that cadillac 3.5l again. I think i got lucky.

The motor isn't usually the thing that makes me run away from a car.

Other than that I know nothing about the 3.1 other than I am sure it needs more power.

I know we discussed riding terrains before. I realize the machine is built for your purposes.

 

Whats your opinion on the taller stance on the sleds built in the more recent years? I know with my size I prefer a lower center of gravity to maneuver, but understand why lighter guys like the taller design.

It isn't about tall, but rider forward. Notice my IQr, there isn't a more rider forward sled on the market. It is WAY further than any consumer sled. Really allows you to get weight on the skis when you need to and on the track when you don't. I LOVE sleds that require an active rider.

Rolling mine onto its side boondocking is way easier than in the ass draggers as well.

I will never, never, ever, never own another low sled. Absolute horseshit for everything except super tight twisties if you want to relax and let the sled do the work.

 

As far as deep powder riding the last place you want your weight is over the ski's.

You need a ride a modern sled, you will change your mind. I assume you've heard the term wrong foot forward? The whole goal when side hilling is to get forward...

 

I have rode quite a few different sleds, old and new. The last sled I rode was an M7. I have rode RMK's also which I assume is as close as I have been to your sled.

I should of found a better vid for you. This one is more the terrain I ride. Might put things in perspective for you.  

 

I am sure you have rode quite a few sleds also, that's why I asked your thoughts on the higher stance. :)

Made a 4 hour road trip and gave him an extra $50 to meet me almost half way. So that comes to $125 per sub and these are as close to being new as you can get. All coils meter very nicely.

You stole those thangs!!!! Good score!!

Vape porn, finally...

Atmomixani Nemesis Vape Pit Edition with Footoon Aqua rebuildable atomizer head. The Nemmy is in shorty mode, and the head is very big. The Nemesis in this mode is super tiny but heavy.

Nemmy in shorty mode and the eVic in long mode. The Aqua head is a tad larger than the Russian head.

Nemmy in full size (18650 mode) and the eVic in 18650 mode.

New toys and old... Nimbus dripping atty, Nemmy and Aqua, my old eVic and Russian 91%, and my Kayfun clone.

Nemmy with topless Nimbus rolling cloud...

Nemmy and Nimbus rolling.

 

Sorry, but getting a real Nemesis is a pretty big deal in the advanced vaping community, so I am pretty excited.

Those are sweet brother!! Love the Vape porn. :D Ignorance is no longer bliss the more tanks I play with.

 

On a good note, my girls that own the local vape shop are moving in the space next door to my shop!

It does need more power.  Other than the intake manifold gasket leaking coolant it seems to be a fairly reliable engine if you want an appliance.  Intake gasket is a  pain to fix since you have to pull the pushrods, but nothing just a few hours and a special little tool can't fix.  I've got one in the W's '99 Lumina.

That looks awesome!

 

Kinds of looks like a a mix between ATV mudding with the ability to manipulate the vehicle  more like a jet ski.
