Hit the tip jar...again!
Posted: Mon Aug 16, 2010 5:32 pm
Hi - catching up on some projects and next steps on the Pinz-
Just reminded again how much I owe everyone here who has shared so much info, to help me, a newb but even more happy Pinz owner, to make this ride safe, practical and an incredible value, and how much more that will be worth as I move along the learning curve.
When people ask me on the street "isn't it hard to find parts"-
I say no, no problem -
but what they really should be asking is-
"Is it hard to find good advice and someone to help you work on them?" for depending on the rest of the ORV vehicle community, theres a LOT of info out there, some of it is not so efficient, or accurate, to get at-
and thats where this REAL 4x4 site and the forums are invaluable, and a big part of why I bought the truck- to be able to learn and work on it myself, someday- and who to trust to do the rest-
and that is a much more difficult target, for a non-expert, on any vehicle, especially newer ones, from what homework I have done for a couple years now, which
depends entirely on the long participation of other owners and the experts in this community, who are more generous with their time and lessons learned, here, than anywhere else I can see.
and that info of course would not be available without a home-
so I've hit the tip jar again in gratitude, to Vince!
And many thanks again to all of you for your generous, patient help, and the wit, humor, and indefinable "good guy" community here- its rare and that makes it worth it all by itself.
