Living in Moab you see so many cool 4x4s you get a bit numb. But when I saw two buggies parked in front of the grocery store I pulled right over and talked to the owners. We went for a cruise the next day. I want a manx knock on so bad now.

Thanks obus! The bassets are the best. Somehow they manage to steal your heart!

Got around to wiring up the PRP heated seats, so nice!

Took a spin down to the trails for an after dinner hike. Forgot just how much earlier the sun sets now. You should have heard the coyotes!
