Yeah man, those old 760s did handle awesome, so much fun to ride. We just were plagued with those darned 2 strokes. We had bought the 760 and a '98 XL1200 together, both used. They ran great at first, then we blew a cylinder on the XL, tried getting it fixed but it took the guy literally a year and he never even touched it. so we took it back, bought an 04 FX-HO got the cylinder on the XL fixed but then we had a crimped oil line or something like that and had we run it for like an hour or so straight would have blown the whole motor lol. So we got all that fixed and sold it along with the 760(which after a while wouldnt start unless you tampered with the fuse a little). The guy that bought our 760 made off like a bandit, my dad just wanted to get rid of it and he drove away with it for 1000 in excellent condition. And then we bought our 06....so, moral of the story...4-stroke or bust haha

and about the used boat, i forgot the website...but we got a killer deal on our boat, i think it retailed at 50,000+ and we got it for something like 25(?) maybe slightly more. its a beautiful boat too, so you should be able to find some really good deals out there.

I'm going to be towing a 31' 5th wheel, and a 28' enclosed traier w/ 3300lb car. I have only had my first Dodge a month, and can't wait to see how it tows compared to my old 99 GMC Serria w/ a 5.3L. I'm hoping the HEMI does better.

Finally got a pic of the car and trailer up... Pulls this 4-5k lbs flawlessly!!! Interstate at 70-75. Up and down some slight hills without tow haul on... NEVER once downshifted. How hard is that on the trans? Pulling in 5th gear?





Thats the race car. Believe it or not.. it put down 415whp and 393wtq on 22psi of boost, on pump gas, on a mustang dyno. Best time on 16psi so far is 11.91 @ 119. She scoots!

couple videos after some tuning of cams

That's still a super nice ski boat! I only got a wakeboarding boat because we couldn't wakeboard behind our Sea Ray ski boat well. It's always cool when the boat color matches the truck. I just got lucky with that deal. Sea Rays are great, nice boat!
