Green Machine

Here is Green Machine. Pretty much straight and road worthy. Koenig winch and currently on 33x9.5 BF Mud Terrains. Kids and I abuse this monster.

Lol, don't embarrass me Swerve! Cover is at a premium here whereas I have 24 acres to scatter without cover. I actually need to give it some TLC but we know how that has gone lately. Perhaps some day I'll have my garage in order and can put all of my vehicles in it! Well at least my Crusher and Green machine. Plow Patrol is under cover in my neighbors garage. Works out as I plow his driveway and we work well together.

Lol, tornado took part of it out last year and then in the fall a hurricane took the roof off. I need to pull it down and bury what's left.

Were all made of money :roll: and this seems to be as easy as possible. I am a contractor and could not build this for my Mom this cheap. If they are put together decently, it may be worth it: http://www.shawneestructures.com/stock-garages.html
24 acres.....wow.....my dream.

Thanks for the link but I really don't want any other structures for the time being. I need to clean and remove items I'm not using/needing and take stock after that.

Yep top 60 here. The 33x9.5's look so right at home I reckon. Looked at these pics many times before choosing my tyres.

I was out doing some work today and took a moment to get a shot. This thing is really like a damn tractor around my property. I still have a voltage leak so installed a shutoff at the battery quite a while ago. It had loosened up a little and the knob was becoming more and more difficult to turn so I pulled it off, cleaned it up and added some antisieze. I also parked it so I could keep my battery tender on it. Runs like a top and does anything I ask of it.
