just wondered what everyone did other than play with their trucks. I spend lots of time with 5 kids, I enjoy snowboarding and boating. also have had 2 really nice Harleys. I am actually trying to buy my first Harley back.

5 kids! Apparently you have a favorite hobby outside of trucks and bikes!

haha 3 were from my wife's first marriage. we had a miscarriage, in 2014. which resulted in selling the sporty for the road king, then on our anniversary, surprise Twins!!

Just trying to feed my son and daughter take up all my spare time!!!

J/K, my wife and I bowl in a doubles league, I used to play darts and golf (just don't have the time now). Other than that, I enjoy a good beer on occasion (OK.... maybe two, or five, or ten.... on more occasions than not!).

And just fyi... I'm standing down in a little of a hole, my son is on flat ground, and my daughter and wife are on a small hump. But I am 6'7 and about 320 lbs, he's 6'2 and about 360 (just turned 15 in October), she's almost 6' (will be 14 in June), and my wife is 5'6 (I don't DARE say how old she is!!... but younger than me!)

So other than my 4 kids, my biggest hobby now is mountain biking. It's really taken over the past few years as wheeling (selling my jeep) and skiing have become cost & time prohibitive. Also helps that my 7 year old is a better rider than most adults. :)

Don't have gutters... Lol.

But I can hang a full 4x8 sheet of sheetrock on an 8' ceiling without any help, no scaffolding or hoist, just a small 3' long piece of 2x4 as a cleat.

My biggest problem is that arthritis and back issues have taken their toll, it's akin to an act of God for me to go from standing up to down on the floor and back up again without writhing in agony after the 15+seconds it takes.

But enough of the thread jack, back to the topic! Who else does what for fun?

I hunt like crazy, lift weights, and am a "pro kneeboarder" the quotations are because none of us get paid anymore. But I'm lucky enough to get free gear and stuff which is awesome!

Two kids, dogs, cats, grills and smokers keep me busy at home.

Just need another wife to complete the set haha. Mountain biking, snowboarding and hiking too.

I also repair/modify small "unrepairable" ac/refrigeration units as a garage hobby, industrial ones to pay the bills.

We had a really nice 37 ft. Fleetwood Motorhome until a couple of years ago. Enjoyed going to Myrtle Beach S.C. bike week for 9 yrs. , just got really hard setting up and coming home, lot of work. Being retired will slow your pace somewhat. Still enjoy talking skip on the base station CB.

I brew my own beer. Recently moved from extract kits to all grain, so i'm in a bit of a learning curve right now. I currently bottle all my beer and the next big step is to set up a keg system.

My wife and son are most of my time (I'm so happy to have this time with them, wouldn't have it before getting laid off). I also enjoy Powerlifting... had a meet coming up but got hurt and sick and now trying to get back into the swing of things

Other than my Tahoe (far from stock), I have a 2000 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 (Heads/Cam/exhaust/induction/full umi equipped suspension) and a 1974 Pontiac Firebird with an LS7 (H/C/I again) under the hood. It has Ridetech 4 link, coilovers all around, detroit speed subframe, 4L85E tranny, and too much to count. I do all the wrenching and tuning myself. HpTuners is my savior.
And I also have a custom 115ci VTwin trike. The trike used to be a 2 wheeler, however after i got into an accident in 2008 and lost my left arm due to BPI, it had been converted into a trike.

Other than cars, bikes and my tahoe, I've got 3 pitbulls (Used to be 4 but my oldest boy had passed away a year ago when he was 15 years old and a lovely wife.
