My neighbor Dale swore my old snowmobile would never start below 10 degrees, so I proved him wrong at 6am
My neighbor Dale has been riding sleds up in Michigan's UP for like 30 years and he always acts like he knows everything about cold starts. Back in January he watched me pull the cord on my 1998 sled and just shook his head, said anything under 10 degrees and it was done for. So the next morning it was 4 below and I was out there at 6am just to rub it in. Thing fired up on the third pull and I rode it around the yard honking like an idiot. Dale came out in his bathrobe and just stared at me with his coffee. Now every time it gets cold he texts me the temp like it's a challenge. Anyone else got a neighbor who thinks they wrote the manual on your machine?
Man that Dale sounds exactly like my buddy's neighbor, old Gus. Gus told him his four wheeler would never make it up the hill to the deer camp in the snow, so my buddy drove it up there in a blizzard just to be a jerk about it. Gus showed up an hour later on foot with a thermos and said the view was better from the top anyway. Now they text each other snow totals every storm like a couple of old ladies.
