Do you find yourself doing this?

While driving around do you look for people pulling trailers to see if it's quads? Does it make you happy to see a trailer with quads on it loaded up heading out to go riding? I do then I feel sad cuz I'm at work and I can't go.
I tell ya on Fridays I have to travel I-75 and I look for them trailers with thoes 4 wheelers on them I see them loaded and ready to have fun. It makes me wonder if the people with them quads are members on this site.
This past Friday I saw several quads in Gainesville, FL and up and down on I-75 so if you are in the Gainesville area and you see a Suburban Propane tank truck it might just be me. Honk and wave and just rub it in your going to have fun while I'm at work.

"hey jess, check out the 4 wheelers" and he'll reply with:
"rator660, predator 500, grizzly700, etc. etc."
and i'm like jesus christ he knows every freakin quad.
they all look the same to me.

Thats exactly what i do with my dad. And then after i announce all of the quads he'll ask a question about one. Then we'll go on talking about it for a while on the way to where ever we are going.

Happened to me this morning on the way into work, saw a quad on the back of a truck and couldn't take my eyes off of it. Now I find myself sitting at work and can't wait until the weekend again to go ride.

When i see a trailor with quads i think the same thing i think when i see a someone pulling a boat. "Why cant i be doing that right now" So if anyone sees a Blue GMC Z71 giving you the finger dont take any offense im just jealous.

Well, I thought I was the only one who zoned out
I guess we are all in good company. Do you all feel a connection to the people pulling those quads or wonder if they have an ATVFlorida screen name? I'm always highly disappointed then it is just landscaping stuff and mowers. I got my son into doing this too. Now how many of your spouses yell "watch the road"?

I do the same thing. I saw freitliner dually pickup the other day and it was lifted with custom rims, tires, extended cab, diesel etc. This thing is worth over a hundred grand new. It was pulling a 20+' enclosed trailer loaded with new 4wheelers. Later last week I also saw it pulling a really sweet ski boat. Someone has some series cash and alot of free time to use his toys. Anyone else seen or know this guy ?

It's not just the boys and their toys. I've been known to swerve off the road a time or two rubber necking someone's rig and quads. It is amazing though cause like you said, it's like we've never seen them before. I put my screen name on my quad. So you won't be able to miss me rolling down the road.
I often wonder now that I have the name on the quad when I'm trailering if someone else happens to know me. Definiately feel like they are family just for having the toys.
Oh and Josh, I was taking my little cousin out riding last time you gave me the finger.....LMBO! Just kidding.

I couldn't believe my eyes as I drove to Jasper a while back to check the water level. On I-75 going south I must have seen at least 50 to 60 quads on their way home after bow hunting, it was sunday afternoon about 2:00pm. I was heading north btw. I bet they were wondering where I was going.
