FWIW I never disconnect my battery and I have had the same Optima redtop for 8 years!

I was finally getting the paint on my new cage yesterday, and I know that it will survive a roll now! I was by myself since Carl out of town, and I managed to roll the cage out of the truck by accident and gouged the whole side of my truck. I had just painted that side the day before too! I was able to repair that damage and get the cage painted but it ended up being a very long day.

I am starting my vacation on Thursday so I can wrap up all of the little details that the cage has taken away from, so I should be good to go Saturday to start the adventure without killing myself to get everything done. I still am having a hard time believing how much time a cage took to get it all of the way done. It is definitely worth it now that I see the end result, but there were times that I felt like quitting.
