    Ah, that's it... sounds familiar.

    I may just pass and pick up a whatever AGM from one of the chain stores nearby.

    Well check back in with me in 10 or 11 years and I'll give you the skinny.

    I can tell you right now, don't buy one at the bullfrog marina. It'll cost you about twice what it should.

    My redtop optima died 1 month before the warranty expired luckily on a weekend when it was snowing. No cost to replace but I don't think much can handle the cold starts here for too long anyway so take that for what it's worth

    I always do. I'm curious to see how long this one lasted; I'm thinking about six years.

    That's what i'm saying man! I love this industry. I can apply my nerdiness and education without selling my soul to O&G or rotting away in a cubicle crunching #s or CADing.
    as far as the whiskey drinking experience, i'm sure that's fine! :rofl::drunk:

    I would be lying if I said I didn't want to apply lol I don't have near the experience I'd imagine. But damn that does just sounds amazing. I am over this current position. Company doesn't appreciate anything.

    I am all about sharing knowledge, as can be evidenced by the myriad worthless, yet informative posts I have done thru the last few years.
    When can I expect a company shirt?

    I haven't run it either, so I'm no value added. Though, from pics/stories/trail reports I've read and chatting with those who have done it, I don't think I'd want to do it. One guy described to me some rock steps you descend which were so steep his brakes did not/would not allow him to stop... I sure wouldn't want a trailer pushing me down something like that if there wasn't room for it to get away from you a little bit.

    It'll be interesting to hear from folks with experience.

    Sounds like a bit of exaggeration.
    The turns are tight though.

    I'm not sure of anything that steep on the trail, and I've been on some steep stuff in Moab that my brakes were able to hold fine haha. But I haven't done it either.
