They did not allow for the depth of that thick brown stuff on the outside of the house so they are not nearly deep enough. And the design makes them way too narrow in the opening. I am making them work anyways but I won't get any more from them.

Anyone use the IB Auto Group app for this site?. It hasn't worked right for a year and navigating with a browser is a pain on my phone.
That was my issue too Jim. If the old window hadn't been partially destroyed already I would have brought the new ones back.

But at least we are that much closer to snowmobile season Dave.

Nah, it's not really worth much. 18 years old and 176,000 miles I'm asking $1,000 for it. Meeting the buyer tomorrow evening and he says he's bringing cash. He also understands I'm not budging on the price. I certainly don't have to sell it, and I have a lot of new parts installed with all records.

I'd love to get a SxS, but I'd have to have people willing to go with me. At the moment my kids are pretty young, and it can be tough taking them all out anywhere. The only way it would work is with a 4-seater, and then I'd be afraid my wife would lose interest. The Pioneer 700-4 would be my choice in that eventuality.

My wife has an employment offer for after she passes her certification exam. That happens in about two weeks. It's not the hospital job she wants, but it's a start!

Good morning Jim, Dave and the rest of the gang!

I survived another birthday! A little older a little wiser they say but only time will tell. All I feel is older.

So if the wife gets a job that means it is time you buy a truck, right???

Tom - It's hard to beat Honda for engineering excellence and reliability... The Pioneer would be a great all around rig..
Good luck in selling the Linc..
