    Not our first but our first nice shiny new one and an actual trail machine. Have demo’d several, this is the one the boss decided on. Although she wanted he new triple black but the max only comes in red. My opinion CanAm is the way to go, pricey but worth it. Hear of very few failures or breakdowns, excluding the self destruction by certain owners.

    Well, that was a quick day @ work.

    Seems a coworker had an out of state relative visit, along with the virus.
    :hair:

    Coworker will be self quarantined for 2 weeks, and the boss shut down the shop for intensive disinfection and cleaning over the weekend.

    So.. 3:30 - 6:15.

    Praying for the best for the coworker & his family.

    Yup. This comes out to $22k by the time the windshield roof mirrors and sales tax are added in. More than I wanted to spend but we will be happy with it. You only live once. Good thing is I deal with BRP everyday. I know dealer cost and he dealers know that. What he’s giving me for prices is way under retail. Making maybe 700 but paid shipping, set it up, installing accessories that are at a wholesale price, filling with efree gas and throwing in he rear windscreen. Can’t complain, they need to make money too. 90% of their business is out of staters coming to their camps on Moosehead Lake. The shop overlooks the lake.

    Will do. I’m not in a rush. Still needs to do the work to put stuff on. Told him to put it on back burner and take care of other stuff. Like I said, I can’t officially sign the papers for a few weeks anyway. Maybe you know someone that works at a dealership that can “demo” one for a weekend, I’d do a week registration there and we can go for a ride. Just went to Randolph today and looked at some of the trails there, you are way ahead of us. We have lots of mud still so they won’t open anything until it dries up some.

    When the trails open we can get demos for you and us no cost. We'll leave DMMS in Berlin with direct trail access. Jericho, wind turbines always a fun ride.

    I feel worse for the affected coworker.
    :confused:

    Boss wouldn't say who it was, which is completely understandable.

    With Chazsbetterhalf already on Oxygen, it does worry me. But realistically, our time will likely arrive, and hopefully it'll not be bad.

    Meanwhile, I do all I can to mitigate risk, as is completely normal.

    Our lives haven't changed all that much.
    :)

    My sister who lives outside of Utica NY was gonna visit some weeks back, advised her not to stop here, as I'm not willing to put Chazsbetterhalf at risk. She did decide to stay home rather than travel.
    :)

    Aside from work, and shopping :hair::hair:, I've been in contact with only one person since the crap began.. and will continue until necessary.

    Oh, I see what you are saying. The guvnah in Michigan did ban plants and seeds, closed greenhouses etc. So weird.

    Yeah, that's horrible. At least your boss let you all go home as soon as they found out.

    Do you have much "contact" with the area/ Dept where it originated? Or was the boss /HR good enough to not let anyone get a hint?
