Who cares about gas mileage, it’s about Fun, Excitement and personal pleasure

You didn't need the validation of MotorTrend for my respect and appreciation for what you've done - but that article is one hell of a feather in your cap, Ivan!

Congrats on the recognition - for all of your hard work. Cheers man!

We measure this in Smiles Per Gallon.

Some of us care more about "Smiles Per Gallon" than "Miles Per Gallon". Obviously, with that reply... you're probably reading in the wrong thread

I got my old Eagle in a readers rides in Fourwheeler, was so happy I bought 5!

Congratulations and super jealous. I want a fast Maverick! Or even just a Maverick!!

2 questions. When will S+B have the cold air for sale? What cooler did you end up using? Cheap guy not willing to spend a mortgage payment on a cooler.

Great work! Love watching this unfold.

For your new business, if you can come up with parts and DIY guides to get the rest of us 90% there, you'll have guaranteed success I think.

Well, we know the gas milage would suffer but that's a compromise. How about the reliability?
