Yes they do Chris. Overall, with the exception of customer service, I have been happy with Sprint. Even if it wasn't unlimited I would never use up my data limit. I just don't use my phone that much. I just want it to wrok well when I do use it.

I think that would have upped the suck factor exponentially. Just do it.

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I'm off to do some sofa surfing. Goodnight.

I plan to get one of those tread template tools as well, should make the install a breeze. Well, aside from actually doing it anyway...

No trim on our walls, just drywall. So, getting the end cuts right is critical. I still have to finish sand everything and stain/poly them.

That does suck Michael.

Good night Jim. I won't be on late tonight I know. Tired...
That's good to hear Jay. Can't do something like that on mine with the one piece seat/tank.

Morning fellas.

Yep another Monday is upon us. Why do we have daylight savings time again? We do have a thing called electricity. Are the politicians afraid of the dark?

Have a good day and stay awake!

That's good to hear Jay. Can't do something like that on mine with the one piece seat/tank.
What is the template for you and Jim mentioned? Do you have a link? I just measured and cut mine...

I forget that the Polaris' have that one piece setup.

That looks like fun too Jim. Pretty warm for sledding isn't it? Snow must have been mush.

The seat wedge just raises the back of the seat so you sit higher. Feels great for me. This way my knees aren't so bent. More like a "rider forward" type seating.

Good morning Jim. I feel like a zombie too but more because I woke up at 2 and couldn't fall asleep.
