    Contemplating upgrade to new RTV 900

    Have about a 10-12 yr old RTV 900. Has been very solid. No major issues at all. Contemplating upgrading to new one. I have pretty much babied my old girl, but about time to do an equipment upgrade at business. Wondering about this. Will I miss the 3 speed transmission? Is the IRS giving...

    Do it yourself bed liner

    I used Herculiner in my old work truck. I wasn't impressed. would knock off with anything hard (2X4, firewood, crescent wrench) dropped in the back. One of the selling points is you can touch it up yourself. Well, this is true, but I didn't want to "touch it up" every stinking weekend...

    Trailerable tops and windshields

    I trailer mine regularly....70 plus, have never backed off. Lexan window, but I do load it backwards. I have more trouble with my seat blowing up and stuff wanting to come out of my under seat storage, so I have to keep a bungie cord on my seat while trailering the RTV As mentioned above...

    RTV 500 Tires

    Well Bucks, I should clarify a bit. They don't hit in normal stuff. Just when you get way off angle across big ditches, or try to cross a log in the woods. That kind of stuff. I can climb 8", maybe 10" stuff and my 27's don't have an issue, but if you get way off, the lugs start popping on...

    RTV 500 Tires

    I will relay my experiences with the 900. I really like the ITP 589's. Just been a good all around tire for me. If I HAD to come up with a negative, they will tear up the yard if it has been raining, but other than that, I love them. I went up to the larger tires, and when I change back, I...

    Spray on bedliner on an 1140

    Not the best picture for examining the bed, but here is mine with Rhinoliner. Was 200 bucks if I took the bed off and took it to them; I MUCH prefer the spray in bedliner. My experience with the plastic inserts is that they rub the paint off and you are going to get some moisture under...

    Goofy idea for those dang stuck fuel caps

    Got tired of fighting that dang old gas cap. Mine is a major pain in the rump to open. SO, found one of these old things laying around and thought "what the heck" and tried it; Mine is very similar to this.....old cheapo universal oil filter wrench that fits over the gas cap. Anyhow...
