    They are operated by an entirely different company now. They kept logo and designs. Not being in montana is a bummer.

    The biggest bummer of them closing up the MT facility was the fact that they kinda "forgot" to pay their employees before they skipped town in the middle of the night.

    Yeah they definitely did those employees dirty. I visited their shop twice to pick up parts. Was easier to take a quick road trip and pick up my expo springs than pay the shipping. The employees were really cool and gave me a walk around of the shop and gave me some free stuff too. I was very surprised when they disappeared and TG bought them out.

    Putting that tag on another plate is illegal. The number on that tag corresponds to their license plate. If you're caught with that specific tab you could be arrested.

    I know, I just haven’t seen anybody try to sell one before. Takes one stupid person to buy it.

    Guess I just assumed the tag would come with it, along with coordination with the DMV. Maybe that’s the guys intent, odds are he’s just a dumb ass though.

    Speaking of dumb... unless local news was wrong (very possible), what the article doesn’t say is that the guy tried to climb the 800(ish) feet into the Grand Canyon (of Yellowstone) using a 300 foot rope. Got to the end of it and scrambled down. Then couldn’t climb back up to the rope. It was a short story and if that’s the case, then complete idiot. Interested to see the full story.

    Did he attempt to climb down because he was stuck and thought it made sense?

    Climb down for a looksie?

    Ended up in a ravine so to speak, tried to ride up, then got stuck and couldn’t climb higher on foot so went down?

    Wish more people were fined to cover the costs of their rescue.

    Yep. He's a jack ass. Not much else to say. He could have died. Numerous rescuers could have died. And weather wasn't great either. Super cold conditions.

    I hope they nail his ass with fines.

    God I wish we would do that more but it seems like the worst any of these guys get is a national park ban.
