  • Bad news, Good news.

    Bad news first.
    Last Friday I went to take some pictures of my Mobilera trailblazer for a member and came across some bad news. I had some amphibs at my brothers house who needed the barn space so he dragged them outside a while back. He then had some loggers come clear some of his trees and I think a branch fell on my trailblazer. My brother didnt know about it and feels real bad. But the back rest part of the back seat is cracked and a chunk missing. I found the chunk. And the very back part of the upper is cracked all the way down. I believe it can be repaired but just bad news. I then was looking at my multimobile and the front is smashed. I think they must of backed into that or something? It should be fixable also. There is a local guy who I hear is real good with fiberglass. I think I might go see him when the time comes rather then fix them myself.

    Ok good new! I put a offer on a house. They accepted and looks like in about a month we will be moving in. Its a ranch 4 bedroom, 2 full bath. 1 car attached garage. 14 acres, 10 wooded. A couple acre pasture they had cows in. A pond to test amphibs in.(google maps says its about 75"x115" oval) And a 60x30 pole barn, cement floor, fully insulated, 240v, water, 12' ceiling(actual ceiling too, not just rafters) and a 10' electric door. It is divided with a 20"x30"? section for a shop with wood stove.
    It is a foreclosure and the house does need some work but nothing to serious. Ill have to redo a bathroom, flooring in most of the house, maybe some cabinets in kitchen and a little drywall work in the living room and some painting to cover up the funky colors in it now. The roof is new on it and the pole barn so thats a plus. So what this means is I will be back into riding/fixing 6 wheelers soon instead of just reading about them on the site. Ill have them all stored inside in one locate.

    So anybody want to buy my old house? lol Im going to have 2 houses for a while I think.

    I'd be making a call to the logging co.They need to make some kind of restitution,they should be insured for that kind of thing.If not,I would never use them again and definitely spread the word.On another note,nice looking spread.

            Glad to hear about the new place, Larry! And I'd be calling that logging company first thing Monday morning. Take pictures of the damage they caused and have THEM pay for what they did to your machines. Its their responsiblility to do that, and like Eddie said, they have insurance for that reason.

                  That's Awesome! (The house) I have land and barn envy for sure..... x25409213908450983 on contacting the logging company, though I'm guessing that this happened a while ago from what you're saying..

                    Thanks everybody.

                    As for the tree service, it has been a few months or more. I can check and see. I don't have any proof. There was a few sticks in it but nothing big.

                    As for my house its going to be a long month. Lol

                        That stinks about the Trailblazer, Larry, but I'm sure you'll be able to fix it so it'll never show the damage. Congratulations on the new home! Cool that you've got some acreage and a test pond- have fun!
