Ok guys I'm sure every time a new guy comes along you get all the same questions. I'm sorry to put you through this again, but I have a lot of ?s and if anybody is game I'd like to use them as a sounding board. First of all, in most of your YouTube videos there is a young guy driving an older red two seater with a roll cage but no windshield. What kind of 6x6 is that? My guess is a Max II.

[Mike]

You are correct, that was a Max II and some weirdo driving it.

[Nathan M]

Sweet! I thought I remembered somebody saying "hey Mike" in one video. Is that still your main ride? I haven't seen it in the videos that seem to be newer.

Mike still has the same machine, but it has gone through several modifications. Currently it has a blue upper body with factory roll bar, 25" tires, and a Bandolero engine (30ish HP)

I bought the Cage and upper body from him a few years ago when he took them off. They went onto my wife's Max II. That max got sold with the red upper body, and the cage got transfered to my wife's new machine.

In this video you can see both machines, although Mike is driving "His Wife's" monster of a Max IV. Since this video, the brown Max II (with the cage) and the Hustler Bigfoot have both had their engines swapped to something with a little more punch.

[Nathan M]

Yeah I really like his wife's Max. Thanks for replying to my questions. Sorry I didn't reply all day. Right after I posted I had to work and jumped in my folks pool to cool down and ended up smacking my head on the pool bottom and sustained a mild concussion. So its been a crazy day and I'm a little foggy now. I can't wait to find a Max down the road and join the club of 6x6 owners.
