Look what the Trailfire Pulled Home!!!!

Post by johndeere48401 »

Big Bad John had to rescue a dead kitty cat in the field and pull it home. It was pretty heavy for the old Trailfire to handle, but we made it. The Arctic Cat did not fair out so well we found it completely fried the E.C.U. for some reason. Couldn't resist had to snap a picture of the rescue rig in action, :sled: :lol22: :bonk:
