squonk 38,845 #1 Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) No seat time this winter at all. Was inspired by Vin and Martin's video, so I dug the RJ out of the shed for a ride. No sun so no glare off of the chrome gas cap and polished steering wheel cap. Gotta have some bling! So here's the vid. Sorry about the narrow screen. Got a new phone and if I hold the phone the right way to record, It plays sideways on the phone. Shooting it with the phone upright, It plays it ok on the phone but shows up sideways on the puter. Youtube plays it the right way but with the narrow screen. I will have to experiment with a shorter video to get it right in the future.

JERSEYHAWG / Glenn 4,487 #3 Posted January 30, 2016 great cruise video Mike. crazy year snow wise. If we didnt have snow storm Jonas I would have never ued the snowblower and had the bearing go. well.....we have plenty if winter weeks to go. snow doesnt look probable though.

stevasaurus 22,229 #4 Posted January 30, 2016 I feel like the Thin Man after watching that video...like I could fit through 16" center studs on new construction. Jenny Craig comes to mind. Anyway, I saw some snow at 2:50 in the video...you could have plowed that...but you did not have a blade. WTF!!! Were you wearing socks?? A monkey on the hood would have been a nice touch. It was a great video Mike!! I hope everyone knows that I am just kidding. We are in search of snow. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elcamino/wheelhorse 9,027 #6 Posted January 30, 2016 Nice video , where were the crowds of your loyal followers ? I would thought the streets would have been lined with people. No snow to speak of and we still having laying all over the place. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 38,845 #7 Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) My followers were lining the streets. didn't you see them? I knew I should have gotten a shot of that guy working on his porch! Edited January 30, 2016 by squonk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elcamino/wheelhorse 9,027 #8 Posted January 30, 2016 The vid was kinda of narrow . The streets are not very long but they sure are wide. Were your followers hiding behind the trees or in the barn that's falling apart. Your tractor is very nice I admire the workmanship. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Martin 2,130 #12 Posted January 30, 2016 Nice vid, Mike. I am really surprised that even you guys have sort of green grass and no snow. Whats up with that? Im really ready here for some white stuff. Not like 3 feet of it, but a good 10-12 inches at least once this winter would be nice. We've had two to three dustings and thats it....... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
