Default Took her for a little test drive.

We took off Wednesday and headed 2 hours out to The Little Pend Oreille ORV Park just outside of Colville, WA. Well, actually we headed out to camp and it just so happened to be by the park... I didn't actually stick to the Park, I went off exploring the old logging roads and such...

Nothing that was outrageously challenging, I am still trying to convince my GF that wheel’n can be fun and safe…

Just watched my wife drive away in it, and said to myself "Damn, I hope she doesn't blow this one up."

Removed the front driver's seat bolts, cut a pair of X's in the floor mat and screwed the floor mat down with the seat bolts.

ok I finished cleaning the interior. I vacuumed it, put armor all on all the interior, shampooed the seats, and sprayed it with febreeze so it now smells like a girl's jeep.

My hubby installed a new radiator in it. I drove it around for a while this evening and it's running so cool! yay!!!

You could kill 2 birds with one stone and just take them all to Vegas.
