    It really feels like Xmas here we got dumped on last night just over a foot of the white "chit" as Moe would say. I hope that is all for now it might look pretty in pictures but it is a P.I.T.A. for anyone like myself who travels the roads allot, I was out last night and there were cars off the road all over the place, there are always a few who don't get the snow tires on in time for the first blast and they end up in a ditch sooner or later.

    Happy Ho...Ho... Holdiays everyone and see you around the XUnvierse tomorrow Mason

    Having a good machine built for that kind of stuff is nice.

    Years ago, testing for Range Rover, we took those poor things EVERYWHERE and through EVERYTHING.. It was amazing what they could take. Mind you this was the early body styles before they became more of a street vehicle then an off road vehicle. The old ones, if you can find one in really nice condition, are fairly inexpensive and rugged like you cant believe. Just have to baby that all aluminum block engine. The headliners tend to fall down in wet climates. You can always have an interior shop redo it fairly cheap though, regluing a new cover of that material onto the roof inner panels (which are some sort of board material, pressed into shape).

    Just dont get the air suspension.. eeks.. The early models had bugs galore in those.. You can get a spring suspension kit that exchanges the airbags out.

    We had a winter test base in Canada that we would send our fleet up to. Was great seeing the wild conditions you need to go through up there. Things like water freezing in your door locks.. We would put heaters in everything in the ice climate models. Door locks included. :d

    Merry Christmas Chacha, Hannah (with 2 h's) everyone here and the Xuniverse as well.

    Chacha I think I just saw Mason in Argon Prime in a shinny new Buster looks like he was heading out on an "Explore" so we may not "Hear" from him for a while yet... and the bugger didn't even wave when he went by...

    LOLOL....

    He blew past me as well.. I think he was too busy looking at his panel trying to figure out how to pull up the landing gear and turn off the windshield wipers. :d


    Mason,

    Go to the nearest free argon station and get the SETA drive; use J key to activate it. Speeds things up for you. If you have enough money, get the engine tune also. Really makes a difference in speed.

    Hundreds of jump gates.... Hundreds... lolololol...

    Bill this was a few years ago but here are a couple of shots of the Trans Labrador Highway on March 31st, 2001 or 2002, it was a bit of a tough winter that year, a Range Rover was just the thing for that season...

    Gold Version? Cool....


    Sorry to hear about your friend's loss...


    Now, that you have the much awaited X3, enjoy..... remember to read the instructions on how to play... or better yet, scroll up and read Mike's instructions, it is easier to understand....

    Have fun....


    Merry Christmas to All!

    Mason,

    Yes it has instructions, do not be like me.... I don't read instructions at all... I learn the hard way, mess up... die, and it gets frustrating... I read a little bit and play again and die again..... :isadizzy:

    Then I read Mikes simple instructions, it is not hard to learn, peanuts....

    Mike explained it step by step.... better than the journal that comes with it.... :ernae:




    Hannah with 2 hs said thank you, Mr Mason!

    Merry Christmas to you and yours!

    Chacha

    Merry Christmas Gang!

    Mason, thats awesome of you to be doing that. This will be a jewel in your crown. You're a good guy. I still feel like she will be healed, that she will make it.


    Eli, what are you and 'two H's' doing this morning? Serving food? Where and when? Its a long drive to Florida, but I could drive fast..


    Mike, thats some deep snow man!!! Range Rovers arent going to help going over the top of it, lol... Down there with that small car, they would be fine. Theres hardly any of those things left around.


    Have a Merry Christmas everyone! Gods blessings... Mason, when you get a chance to install it, please let us know. Ive been waiting for that moment for several weeks now. Your fault, lol.. .

    Sorry to hear your friend's mom isn't doing well Mason. Our thoughts and prayers are with her and her family.

    Glad you got X3 Gold. But DO read everything you can on X3 and X3TC. It's the only way to go..... just jumping in will be like walking thru a dense fog.... or one of Mike's snow storms. LOL

    And Mike.... that snow has only two ways to travel over it, unless you can swim thru it... snowshoes or a ski doo! Never had it that bad on the Cnadian border in NY where we lived.... and don't want it ever see it that way either. It's all yers. Eh!

    OH GT that was just a little blow, we get stuff like that all the time, here are a couple of shots from the next year, these are in St. John's NL, I arrived the day before this storm hit and stayed for a week. The funny part is as bad as this storm was nothing closed down and very few folks were even late for work, those Newfies just take it in stride and "Get-er-done" truly amazing folks.

    Yer right Mike... up there they take it in stride as just another winter day.

    Down here, things would be shut down til it melted. LOL I've never seen such a bunch of whinea#@s in all my life. Heck, even with 18's of snow on the ground we still went to school... BEFORE the roads were plowed. School would only close only if the buses couldn't get out of the bus garage. Or if visability was less than 100 feet. No joke.
