That is such a great pic Beancooker! Where was it taken?

Some of my best memories I can remember were off roading in a Jeep with my grandfather.

It was taken on FR9513. Climbing out of Skeleton Bone Gulch. It’s an area between Clarkdale and West Sedona, AZ.

My favorite fun vehicle would be a motorcycle but it'd be hard to narrow it down to one. Probably this one for longer trips in comfort.





And this Guzzi for general all purpose riding.

My 2014 Rubicon is my favorite, I sold my 2003 Corvette last year. We've done a lot of off roading but have slowed down with age, I'll always have a vehicle like this, though.

Mine's the red one:

That's a good looking JKUR.
I thought about a JLU before buying the Explorer, but they just hold their value too well & were outside what we were looking to pay.

That's cool what exactly is it, Ryan? And what tracks do you run it on?

It's a Fairmont M19 speeder/motor car. It was used for railroad maintenance. There is a rail trail up in NH that has a club that is allowed to run on the rails that are still in place. There are also excursions that take place on active railroads throughout the year.

Interesting, it looks like a fun hobby!

My fave by far.

V-Tail
Sold, to my regret, a few years ago when the Feds did not want to renew my medical certificate due to prostate cancer.

Owned it for more than thirty years, covered a lot of miles for business travel, family travel, and just plain fun. Visited every state east of the Rockies, as well as many of the Bahama Islands. Flew it with SigMonkey, ArtieS, and / or DrDan aboard, to SIGforum get-togethers at a range in St. Joe FL, and the homes of Jeff Yarchin in NC and Screaming Cockatoo in GA.

I didn't know you had to sell, V-Tail! That sucks.

Once the feds declined to renew my medical certificate, the only (legal) way for me to fly was to have another pilot on board, who had all the proper paperwork to be legal PIC (Pilot In Command). Made no difference whether or not s/he was a competent pilot, as long as the papers met FAA requirements.

I got disgusted and quit flying, rather than put up with that crap. Let my Flight Instructor certificate lapse, as well, rather than play the FAA's games.

What in the world does the prostate have to do with flying an airplane?

I wondered the same.
Seizures or something immediately incapacitating, sure.

Mule and a race horse. Picked up the M1000R this past weekend. Impatiently waiting for the maiden voyage to take it out this coming weekend.
