Of course.
Most ATV's aren't much fun until you start doing something that could end with it landing on you.

Badass is right! It’s a diesel F-350 cargo van with a 4x4 conversion from Quigley. http://www.quigley4x4.com/Home/tabid/37/Default.aspx

Why did you buy a van and convert it to 4WD instead of just getting a Suburban or something that's already 4WD?

It took us a while but we found one already converted. We have large dogs and the open space works out well for them. When we do have passengers the seats pop in and out fairly easy. Not to mention I can almost stand up in it which will come in handy for changing out of snowmobile gear.

Yeah. I was wondering why you even needed the sleds when you have the two monsterous dogs that could pull you around just as easily! LOL.

You actually get passengers with those big dogs around, they haven't scared anyone away? HA.

Next year maybe. I want to find a ZRT, Thundercat, or Indy Storm 800 just for drag racing. They can be had cheap, the problem is finding them.
I just took it around the lawn and put it back in the garage. It was "to make sure it would still start" (at least that's what I told my wife )

Julie, nice lookin' sled

Badass! While I'm happy with the riding I've been getting in, I'm also looking forward to a VERY fun snowmobile season.
