    Mmmm the Hatchcover,, haven't been there for years.

    I'm in the Springs a lot.

    McCloskey still has the silver??? That was my first VX.. He loved how well I took care of it and kept it for himself.

    Thumbs up

    Yeah, I like hatchcover.. I guess it used to be a nicer restaurant, but now it's a bar, but the kitchen equipment must have stayed becuase the menu is big and they have great food...

    I play poker there usually on Thursday nights... Yesterday was a semifinal game... Here's the info -> www.brokeasajoke.com

    I'm Andrew S sometimes Andrew St if there's another S - in the point standings to the right... but it shouldnt' be there now, they restart the pre-tournament games each 6 weeks and I used up my points to play in the semifinals last night...

    There's another Proton VX in the area, I've talked to the owner at hatchcover once, but he's not interested in the websites and all that...

    yea the ones in monument are pretty nice, the kaiser is a 99..and the ironman is real nice...although the parts are put on by individual rather than a company because they dont all fit quite perfect...for instance the winch is in the cladding in front...the hole for it wasnt cut straight and what not....but for playing offroad it would be nice...thats my home so i have checked it out many of times =)

    Saw a silver in Woodland Park today with nice black wheels and a Predator decal across the front windshield. Anyone here?

    I wonder if that Ironman for sell is the one Jay sold from Texas about 6 months ago? If that's the case, it's loaded with all kinds of goodies.
    Peace.

    Talking

    ha ha..

    sub zero??? I don't think so.. I used to live in Cleveland.. that's subzero.. colorado springs might as well be the beach compared to there...

    All the snow (minus the plow piles in parking lots) is gone already from the "blizzard".. I love it here, best weather around!

    the cool thing is.. when it gets blasted with snow like that, no one goes out.. except me.. and that's a lot of fun.. the road to yourself with a foot + of powder.. mmm mmm.. almost as good as boarding in it.. well.. maybe
