They get paid to ride places that I look at and think, man, if I could just go there without getting a ticket. The most awesome hill climbs I see are all illegal and <u>so</u> tempting. The bad news is that one of my childhood friends had that job and got an arm ripped off in an accident. They re-attached it but it's a few inches shorter. There are a few places where you DON'T want to ride an ATV.

Those guys must have "quad butt" all the time.
I think 3,000 miles a month would give you saddle sores and make you walk like John Wayne.
It's still better than working in a factory and not being able to move more than a foot away from a press all day.

<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote>It's still better than working in a factory and not being able to move more than a foot away from a press all day.</end quote></div> Yep, you can dress for the elements and ride out a storm. But, working all day in a closed in space in a factory or corporate office gets old fast for me. I'd always gone for the oudoors jobs before I hurt my back.

I like how they say that they need to keep the land pristine, while there is a picture of the guy digging a hole to China on the slope. I don't think he has it in 4wd.

I think they did that so they could show the excavator towing the Sporty with the 6x6 hooked to it, the sporty would have made it up that hill no prob in 4x4.

HO I agree with you, I find it frustrating how they go into detail on how they have to keep the land pristine, while showing the guy making fox holes. It must be nice to have the privilege to do something most of us can only dream about and blatantly do exactly what you are not supposed to be doing. While I do not know whether he caught flak for that stunt is beyond me. That just really frustrated me.
