It was a pain in the rear end.

I never wanna work on a car again after getting this bike though. I have a lot of preconceived notions on how long everything takes to do from cars but then I do it on the bike and its like ... oh im done. Even if I'm like I have no idea how to do this I just take everything apart around it and poof its done!!! I didn't like my rear suspension so I just bought some used $80 thing off some other bike and boom it was in. :wtf: its like 3 drat bolts and it falls out. I literally spent more time getting it off the ground and back

Since you said the word Jeep you reminded me about 2 weeks ago I saw a newer model Grand Cherokee in the middle of an intersection with its driveshaft on the ground. I laughed and couldn't believe that still happens to Jeeps.

Cut em up with a chainsaw first. Depending on how long you want segments you can get em small enough to lift or chain to a tail hitch or roll onto a plywood sled chained to tail hitch. I cut down and tore apart a bunch of big rear end trees last fall, it was fun as heck.

Helping trim some trees at church. That was a lot of work, but I got to use a hatchet (and didn't seriously hurt myself in the process) so that was pretty cool.

Saturday, I helped a friend move his wife's 10 credenzas and 30 boxes of kitchen accessories up and down stairs, in and out of trucks.

I nearly lost it on the 60" plasma carting it down stairs with him. Told him he needs to name it Tyson because it's a big black heavy weight.

Yesterday I got to drive a 'small' 5 speed manual one ton dump truck to the landfill only to find out it was closed to commercial vehicles (even though we'd just borrowed the truck for home use) so we got to empty about a thousand pounds of renovation garbage with shovels.

The day before we did the same thing with a smaller truck and I stepped on a nail and I was in my runners not my steel toes because I'm a moron.

I dug 10 or 12 holes today with a square ended shovel and then screened all of the dirt that came out of the holes.

I think tomorrow I'll go out and do it all again, in fact maybe I'll make a whole week of it!
