Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

Due to Buddy's love of water I'm getting a boat he can follow.
It's a 9' inflatable pontoon boat with a 55lb trolling motor.

If you're not in a hurry watch cabelas, I picked up my Colorado for about 40% off.

 

For the rare times my truck or the t4r have been in, they always take good care of me.

 

I agree the mechanic work has been spot on at Dolan however the d bags in parts and service scheduling are lacking any knowledge or know how in anything they are supposed to do

 

My experience has been kind of the opposite. Mechanics are meh but Brandon in parts has always been super helpful and cool with me.

 

Nice. XT or XTS?
Mine will be here tomorrow.
The motor & all the other shit will be here in a few hours.

 

Saw those at Costco for I believe $300. No motor though

 

I pride myself on doing projects by myself from start to finish but I’ll tell ya, hanging rock, taping, and texturing I’ll gladly pay for!

 

I've hung rock, but never on the ceiling. That has got to be a pain in the ass. No thanks.

 

yea, this is just the kitchen and laundry room! I feel bad for the poor suckers I rope into the garage (15 foot ceilings and living space above so it has to have 5/8" sheetrock) !

 

We had a yard sale last weekend but you get the point.

 

Yeah that's rough. I need to insulate and rock one of my shops, not looking forward to it.

 

I'm on the hunt for an aluminum fishing boat (14-16ft) that'll seat at least 4. Open to tiller boats but would prefer a console or windshield model. Not interested in flat bottom Jon boats or bass boats.

If you have one or know of one for sale that is in decent shape please message me. Trying to keep it under $5,000 but could scrape some extra cash up for the right boat if it's over budget.

I can't tow my current boat with the motor on it and I won't be able to lift the motor from the bed of the truck onto the boat after surgery so I'm hoping to find something by mid August when I start feeling well enough to get back on the water.

 

I want a garage like that at my house!

 

I have the XT. i think its the smaller of the two.

 

Same size (9') if it's a Colorado. XTS adds a swivel seat to the XT package. If it's a 8 footer it's a Roanoke.
So when are we doing a river or lake trip?
Any other Pontooners out there?

 

It's 9' no swivel. I'll go hit up a lake but there aren't any rivers deep enough around here for it.

 

Even with all the rain?
I figure there should be some deep enough.

 

Actually the run from the earlier parts of the Carson would probably be feasible about now.

 

You got this
