    So, your parents loved you enough to give you a big wheel with slick plastic tires and told you 'have at it'? :rofl::crapstorm:

    This has been my experience as well. Then again, my "fun truck" is a manual, so.... :D

    Yup exactly, just hold the button. It’s the same in the GRC as the taco.

    My brother and I went through a few pair of brakes (Zips sneakers) with our Big Wheel, and my cousin had one of these beasts back in the day... it was next level.

    Then there was the time we were flying down the sidewalk at excessive speeds on Big Wheels and my brother crashed into the neighbor kid and broke his leg. Memories of childhood summers well spent. Parents met and apologies were exchanged. "Boys will be boys." I feel like these days a lawsuit would have ensued.

    Something else I learned a few weeks ago that may have its uses in certain scenarios.
    I wasn't aware of the long press.

    Hey hive mind - I think my AC line might be clogged and is causing leakage into my passenger footwell.

    Curious if you guys have had this happen, and if it could be something else? Haven't pulled the cabin air filter to see if it's wet.

    Is that carpet all wet above the mat, too?
    Until a better answer comes around.
    I ran across a thread where leaves and debris were built up at the bottom of the windshield under that guard. Causing water to leak in.

    Yes, the carpet is wet. I usually keep an eye on leaf and debris build up, but I'll check that tonight!

    Outstanding! I can't wait to see it on Pat's "slightly scratchy" trails this fall!

    Yes! The "fun" button! There have been a few threads about it. You really have to dig in the manual for that information.

    It's definitely fun doing donuts in a snowey parking lot now and then. :burnrubber:
