re: Advice on Pressure Washer

Posted by longsidelandry on 9/9/22 at 7:19 am to
I bought a cheap $100 Greenworks electric pressure washer from Lowe's about 5 years ago to leave at my camp for washing my side by side. Didn't use it like I thought I would so brought it home and have been using it to wash my house, garage, patio, shop, pump house, & all cement twice a year with zero issues. I also bring it to the camp and wash the camp & porch once a year. Use it to wash our vehicles & side by side a few times a year. When it goes out, I'll be getting another one. If you use the right cleaners, you don't need a big washer.
It'll all come down to what you're going to do with it and how much you'll use it.
I hunt on a 10,000 acre lease that has some pretty rough trails. The majority of side x side's up until a couple years ago was Polaris Rangers. Now it's Pioneers because the rangers were always broken.
The same story played out on my father in law's lease in TX, they were mostly rangers but now everyone there has a pioneer.
I have a 2016 pioneer 700-4 that I bought in 2015. I've put that thing through hell & back and have had zero issues. I've had 5 men and 3 deer on it and it didn't miss a lick.
Will be looking for the same thing in the next couple months for south of Lafayette. Working on layout right now.
I use it like a prewash. Soak whatever I'm washing with the mixture, let it sit for 5-10 min, then hit it with the pressure washer.

I have one of those small Greenworks 1700 or 1800 psi electric ones that I bought with the full intention of returning it because I had zero faith it would be worth a crap. I've been using it for 2.5 years now and haven't touched my gas pressure washers since. I've washed my 30x40 metal shop & slab, gutters, brick house, cement driveway, camp, wooden deck and when this one dies I'll probably just upgrade to the one that's on wheels to make storing easier. I use either Jo-Max & Clorox Outdoor mix or the 30 Second Cleaner to get the stains off.
Jude Couvillion in Abbeville does great work for an honest price.

I will say that I had a Ram 1500 Big Horn rental recently and was very impressed with the interior and how it drove and handled. Not so sure about long term reliability with Ram these days but would like to hear thoughts.

I would prefer to keep the price under $40k if possible as I am poor but I know it is doable provided I don’t load up on too many options. Speaking of options why doesn’t Ram have running boards on any of their trucks? Can the dealer not add them if you want them added?

I have a 2013 Ram 1500 Big Horn 4x4 crew cab with just under 100,000 miles and it's been my favorite truck yet. I bought it new from Acadiana Dodge in Lafayette for right at $34k (and yes, it came with running boards).

I bought a small electric one from Lowe's. It's a Greenworks 1700 psi and works really well. I use it to wash our cement patio, gutters, vehicles, and side by side and it works great.
I have a 2016 Honda Pioneer 700 4 seater and love it. Never had any issues with it and it's a workhorse.
The wife and I will be there with 2 other couples in July as well. A friend that's been all over the place said that's her favorite place.
Yep, that was the first thing paid. Wasn't taking that chance!
My wife and I will be heading to Barbados next July with 2 other couples to all celebrate our 10 year anniversaries. We're staying at the Sandals Barbados in St Lawrence Gap.
Has anyone stayed there before? If so, what are some "must do" activities in the area? My 2 buddies and I are definitely interested in a fishing trip so any tips on good charters or ones to stay away from would be appreciated as well.

re: Inexpensive scope

Posted by longsidelandry on 12/3/18 at 9:18 am to
I was in the same boat a few years ago. I won a Tikka .270 and just wanted a cheap scope to put on it for a back-up gun. I ended up putting a Vortex Crossfire II 4-12x44 and love it. I now shoot that gun as my #1 and keep my Browning A-Bolt Medallion with a Leupold as my backup.

I'll be building up points as well. Gonna take the boys to a birthday party and do a few things I've been putting off around the house. Our lease doesn't start getting good til Christmas anyway.
I was there with my family over Thanksgiving break and rode it with my 7 year old. He was good until that shark thing jumped out of the water then it looked like you were riding through the wave. He freaked the hell out at that point! I had to take his glasses off and make him look around at the room behind us to show him that we weren't really flying.

I think Rock N Rollercoaster is up there as my favorite though, I just wish it was a little longer.
