New ride

Post by smokewagon » Thu May 09, 2019 9:36 am

I’ve been looking for a while and finally found my new PW. I’ll post a pic or two at a time and see how long it takes for everyone to guess what I bought. Hopefully it’s more fun this way. Image
This little guy seems to like it.

I did! I’ve got about 1250 miles of seat time in it since Wednesday and I’m loving it. Got another 1200 miles to go until it’s home in Idaho.

I made it home tonight, what a trip. Traveled through 9 states, covered almost 2600 miles, only got pulled over one time, and even got to spend a couple hours in the holy land. ImageImage

Great pics! That would be a sweet drive. Hope you enjoy a great rig with good history. Nice to see it staying in the PWR family.

Needed to get out of the office so thought I’d check the fit of these new wheels. Just a little rub on sharp turns but I think they’ll do.
