Here are some pics of my bro's new rubicon on the first ride a couple of weeks ago. We have a big ride planned for this weekend, if the snow isn't still too deep. There will be a couple of dirt bikes as well so it will be pretty entertaining.LOL Here is the link: www.dunbarphotographic.com/toys.htm Cheers!

I rode my grandpa's Rubicon for a while the other day. It's an '04, but DAMN does it have a nice tranny. Never realized how nice they were until I got to take one out on the trails and in a little bit of mud. They're decent quick too...stuck her in ES and hit 45-6 in 4th... ;D

The biggest thing I noticed about the rubi is that you can maintain momentum while climbing hills in the snow. It makes it so much better not having to shift.

I salute you, Flipstick, as a fellow gun freak! This valley will be ringing with the glorious sounds of rifle and pistol fire in another month. Can't wait.

Greetings Plowboy, The wolvy has a lower center of gravity and truly rides like a sport quad. i can go like a gang raped ape with that thing compared to the big old foreman. 2 totally different machines. It's pretty gutless though without a pipe/k&n etc. If it would turn 26's, I would probably unload the foreman and buy another wolvy. Has more top end too. Adjustable preload shocks are another huge plus. If I'm riding nasty rough stuff, I just crank 'em up a couple of clicks. If it's dirt roads/log roads, I run it soft. I seriousely doubt it would turn the 26's though. It would suck the life out of it. Best, Steve

I salute you, Flipstick, as a fellow gun freak! This valley will be ringing with the glorious sounds of rifle and pistol fire in another month. Can't wait. Well I haven't shot any rifles or pistols lately, but I love shotguns and shoot them everytime I get a chance! That's another reason I opted out of a sport atv because I can't haul my cousin's shotguns when we go to the back of the field to shot. I'm also getting some real good gun racks for the new foreman. My favorite to shoot for the fun of it is a pump 20 ga.. I can put up to 5 shells in it and when we shot clay targets he throws up two at a time and that gives me back up incase I miss, which happens every now and then. Can't wait to go back and shoot!
