I think it'll be a good project for our family. I've run it past Gerri so now the issue is simply money. It's a challenge to pay doctors and build a rig at the same time.

I was thinking I could start up a Colorado brothel for male whores but trying to convince Fred to wear a speedo could doom it.

What would doom it, him wearing a speedo or not wearing a speedo?

Well the more I think about it the more I realize it'd be a group of old men wearing speedo's. Some smoking, some with oxygen masks, some with pizza slices and male pattern baldness, it could get real interesting.

Can you imagine presenting that business plan to a group of investors?

I think it just might work, as long as Fred doesn't wear his Thong backwards. :laugh2:

How's your minds eye now Chad??

James and Scott you guys are forgetting the suburban the Watsons built to wheel. I followed that truck on Gold Bar Rim it was much better to wheel than my blazer. If done properly you could do nearly all of the moderate and lesser trails no worries at all.

Sure you couldn't do carnage or die trying or topless but why would you want to?

That hurts, but not as bad as the vision of a grown man in a speedo. Backwards.
