Hi all-
Well the MV bug bit me hard and I have my first one on the way here soon. Forum member 98G made me an offer I couldn't pass by and my M925 will be delivered in a few days. Many of you already know he's a tremendously helpful fellow and he went WAY out of his way offering opinions on auction sales, model differences, accsssories, mods, etc. Thanks buddy!
The forum has been a fantastic resource as well. I've spent many a bleary eyed night over the last 3 weeks reading thread after thread about a whole host subjects and the 939 family in particular. I'm sure it won't be long until I tap into the valuable resources here (you guys) for additional help with my new pride and joy.
To that end I have a few OK specific questions I want to ask. Those of you with a MV over 26,001lbs, did you get a CDL? The gals at the DMV don't care one way or the other. But a no-nonsense trooper could easily jam me up and ruin my day. Wondering what you guys did?
How about activities? You guys get together locally ever? I see there's an offroad "park" on the northeast side of the city that charges $10/day for you to get muddy. Anyone ever been there? Any public land or easy river access I can try out? I got a winch specifically so I can self-recover and help out new friends.
How about repairs and mods? I'm happy to volunteer my help with some heavy lifting or wrenching. While I'm new to MV's, I'm not new to the planet and I fancy myself as very capable in all things mechanical.
And while some consider it an internet faux pas, I'm happy to share my contact info. Call or text me the next time you go out, get together, need help or can help me. Thanks guys!
