No never been. It doesn't see much action right now more like a pavement princess. Wish finances were better so I could go have fun! And thanks for the kudos!

Thanks! I wont leave home without a spare tire. Getting stranded once was all it took for me to learn that lesson.

I like it. Its not mine ill eventually buy a Hobart 140. I've used all ranges of mig welders and the 110v are most practical and are fine up to qtr inch steel. Always use the shortest extension coordinator possible!

Teuf,

Its for sale. I want it gone!

I concur with the sickness of your truck, I also am looking at eventually picking up the Hobart 140, they seem to be a good machine, haven't heard anything negative about them yet.
