Kind of fun, it runs, it moves! We drove this up to a clearing on our property and back and it consumed 2 gallons of fuel! I was convinced this was my imagination until we did it again the next weekend.

Thanks for all the encouragement!

These are some photos taken since April. Note the robins nest. I guess I am not working on this enough. Again, your encouragement is inspiring!

So do you calculate that fuel consumption in miles per gallon or in gallons per mile?

It's been a while folks. She runs, drives and kind of stops. My brother and I took a ride up the hill this weekend. I have posted this a couple other places, but hope you enjoy!
