Re: OT wifey amazes me AGAIN
um, ziplock? :)
Actually, MP3 players are still more expensive than CD players, but you
can have something that doesn't skip and they are way smaller (you could
keep it in your coin pocket). I wouldn't wear one scuba diving tho. :)

Snorkel and a winch first....
And a sealed plastic box for the stereo with poly speakers. Marine
shops have some interesting containers and you can make a sealed exit
for the cables. Or improvise with a tupperware container and duct tape
as a second seal....

Re: OT wifey amazes me AGAIN
The more I drive it The more I'm amazed.
I owned it 8 years now
I've driven it over dead fall trees,logs,branches and browse.
Trail? We don't need no stinken trail (Seriously)
Through loon ***** swamps
(you know, when you sink up to your knees/crotch in it)
Crossed lakes,ponds and streams.
As for rocks... Well it's like any machine. Put the wheels on the
highest rocks to climb over or go around.( I don't climbs rocks for fun)
I have a skid plate on it so scraping over rocks is no problem. traction
is no problem as it's a skid steer
when one side starts to spin just brake it and the other side drives it
out. I wish I had pictures of it in action.
With the super tracks, it also traverses deep snow (I don't have tracks
as I have a Ski Doo MXZ)
I use the machine only for hunting season in the Calabogie Ontario Area.
Mike Romain kinda knows the area as it in the same general area he
wheels in the fall.
Granted some things a Quad ATV can do, may be better,(like go faster)
but in my opinion this machine is the ultimate year round GO ANYWHERE
all terrain vehicle. I almost bought a Quad untill I test drove it.
I guarantee that a Jeep or Quad cannot follow me up at the hunt camp.
