I have a couple.
The 1994 F150 that's been in the family since it was new. My uncle worked at the Ford plant in Chicago as an engineer and ordered it new. A year or so later he died and mom & dad bought it from the Estate. A few years before dad died he sold it to me. It's got a tow package,5.0 engine and I put coil over shocks in the back too. I sold the cap off of it.



I've also got a 2,000 Polaris 325 Trail Boss I bought new. It flooded out real bad when it was cold real bad when I got it. I ran a test on it to see if it was running rich and it was but the dealer only adjusted the choke. I knew it was in the carburetor settings though but I let it go for years. Finally a few years ago the float stuck so I rebuilt it and sure enough,they had the float setting to high from the factory. Now it runs a lot better. I drag deer out with it,plow snow and just ride it for fun. I doubt I've got 300 hours on it.
