Ain't been doing much, just working around the house and the property. Also been working on a lift gate for my fiancee's Jeep Grand Cherokee. Her's has a lot of rust damage. Just trying to stay busy and stay cool at the same time.

Been out doing some light tree trimming on the UTV.  Especially branches that tear my hat and glasses off as I mow around them on the ZT..  Getting warm and humid here in Michigan.  I don't do well anywhere above 80 degrees or 70% humidity.   Now back in the basement "office" checking in on UTV Board.  😀

The wife loves to mow, so who am I to stand in the boss’s way? Bad thing is she gets the zero turn and I get to trim and weed eat. She loves to mow so much I volunteered her to mow a new to the hood neighbors yard in their process of moving here. We will mow their yard most of this year. They have six mowable acres and we have six too. Twelve acres to mow, old age, and 100° temps means I drink a lot of water, Gatorade, and beer. 
Gottta learn to keep my mouth shut when volunteering her yard mowing love!

I work on a ship that travels between Houston, Southern Lousiana, and Florida...miserable all summer. I dont know how you guys manage it. I never seem to find the right balance between staying hydrated and peeing constantly. I have worked asphalt barges in Lousiana in the summer too. 300 degree cargo means the temperatures on deck are even hotter since it radiates through the steel.

Much nicer at home in Maine the other half of the year.

Just finished rebuilding a small deck on a side door.  UTV used as a work and saw station.   Humidity high and 85 degrees.  Very little air movement in the work area.   Done now, both the job and me.  Cool basement office awaits a few hours of nice cool temp.

      I have a Coleman Outfitter 550 purchased in January 2022 that runs and operates pretty well.  65 hours on it so far.   It is a work vehicle for my 10 hilly acres with two 1 acre woods and 5 acres of "lawn".  The rest is under a lake. 
      My parking brake does not seem to have any grip.  It worked when new but after a month or so, it is just almost useless.     I press the parking brake pedal hard until it stops. Still, it won't hold even on slight inclines.   I don't see the caliper move as I press the brake pedal down.  There seems to be plenty of pad left on it and the rotor is shiny as if it is rubbing a little when applied, but not enough to stop it from rolling. 
      Any thoughts on possible causes?

      Hey guys! Was wondering if anybody has had any experience in shutting up a Kioti K9 or Kioti Mechron.  I daily drive a K9 in an underground mine and between the engine noise and belt whine I can’t hear myself think while driving this thing! 2-5 hours a day. It’s a 2021 model with 180 hours on it. Belt and clutches are clean, machine is maintained to factory recommended schedule and then some. Has been like this since new. Before I start boxing in the engine with plywood and stuffing insulation under the seat I thought I would reach out and see if anybody has run into this before!

      Thanks for accepting me!
      Haven't got a side by side yet, but have been shopping.   
      Any advice welcome & I am on a limited budget, so haven't decided yet on new or used.
