when I'm not working and I get some time off to get away, I go gold prospecting.
from panning to high banking, sluicing and dredging.
hope this summer I get to go more out to llano and maybe a trip to Colorado.

also have a project in Ho trains i would like to get started again but the little woman says that
a layout of 2 sheets of plywood takes up too much room in the garage.

No other hobbies... It would take time and money away from the truck.

I ride BMX, been doin it since I was about 12 and dont plan on stoping till my body wont let me. Thats actually the main reason I bought a truck, So I could fit all my friends and their bikes and travel.

PappaDan... I have a few HO train sets from when I was little. I wish I had the room to set everything up. My friends dad is making a replica of 30th street station here in philly in his basement. Im not sure how far along he is on it now.

I use to ride ATV all the time when I was younger. Most of my friend didn't know I knew how to ride one. Until I jumped onto one and road a wheelie and bicycled it.LOL I bought my Z400 little over a year ago but I just don't have time to ride it. Plus I don't have a 100 acres right out side my door like use to. I figure I would sale it and concentrate on my true love, FAST CARS/TRUCKS!!!!!LOL

I play bass, been playin about 20 years...I like the heavy stuff, like OverKill, MegaDeth, etc. I basically taught myself by listening to Iron Maiden albums and figuring out how to play their tunes. Used to have a cover band and played on weekends, but unfortunately, as most bands do, we split up. I haven't been able to play for a few months since the arm surgery, but I'm looking forward to coming back with a vengence (gotta wait out the heart thing now too ). It's a great outlet for me...slammin the strings as hard and loud as possible...kinda like goin full throttle with a cammed, open header, GENIII truck

I like to wakeboard any chance I get in the summer. I sold my warrior a few years ago, but loved to go out to our local dunes and ride with the boys. Now I pretty much work all the time and work on other peoples crap. Sometimes I actually get to work on my own truck, but its not often enough....

I think I'm about to buy another project. I just don't know if I want to buy a car/truck/crotch rocket. Either way, it will be fun to get some wrenches on something besides the truck for a change.

Pretty mutch anything outdoor related. ATVing, hunting crawfishing rounding up gators, catching frogs. Whatever, but most of my time/money goes to my truck.

Something about that cammed, stalled, open header GENIII thing budhayes was stating. Loving the electric cutout.

Good pics, have you ever though about riding the Hatfield-McCoy trails in VA, I hear it's a blast out there! I don't think there is anything too much funner than riding ATV's, here is my other baby/hobby.
Oh, and $3200 takes it, just thought I'd add that..
