Anyone out there up for helping out Nolan’s school football team? If you can make a five dollar donation, it would be great and if not well that’s OK too. Take care

Highly recommend if your considering electric wiper conversions. This one maintains the independent two k**b wiper look.

PRODUCT ORDER NOTICE:
Scout 80/800 electric wiper kits
I am offering 6 kits as that's all the components i can secure from my supplier before they have to order again. The manufacture has announced another price hike coming in May or June. So any more that this 6 will go on the next list and if i have 6 more i can order them in and hopefully beat the sales price increase. I order in batches in order to get a price break and bring the cost down for you all. Also to keep the cost down this batch i am waiving the handling fee this batch. Id like to do this pretty quick to also take advantage of a listed price discrepancies thats saving you an additional $16. Component manufacturer did not update their catalog so they will honor the lower price.

For This batch of 6 each kit will be $432+$17.10 usps flat rate. So $449.10 each. I can take electronic payment via Paypal or if i can finish the setup via Venmo. Sender to pay any fees, but if you send a certain way from payal you don't get charged any % fees. :) Please PM me directly that you want a kit and that will time stamp you in line. I will take orders on a first come basis. #1 is spoken for by a customer that's been on my waiting list (so its good to be on a list ;) ) Means there is 5 left so send me a DM and ill work with you on the payment. Delivery time should be in 2-3 weeks

Happy Harvesting
Regards
John

28-Turned Around Trail Ride & How to Plug a Flat Tire 27/11/2022

This episode is about our time spent at Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area in Kentucky on our way down from Alaska this summer. Very cool being able to get up close and personal with Elk and Bison, though we always kept the Scout between us and them. We also found some great public trails to enjoy. The screw in the tire was less welcome but not hard to fix. All in all a great couple days in a place I never knew existed.

At this point we were starting to have some issues with Nugget. The midwest heat and the thousands of miles were taking their toll. We found a nice spot in Kansas where planes taxi up the street for breakfast at a century old hotel, and ran into some fellow Scout/teardrop folks we met at RMIHR in Colorado. Then it was on the road again for a stress filled breakdown in the Ozarks.

If you enjoy the videos please consider subscribing to the Channel. We've never received anything from YouTube for making all the videos, and it's not exactly why we do it, but we are getting closer and I'd not be one to complain about a little gas money😉. Thank you all for the support. It's been an amazing adventure so far.
