I don't think Mike is really that jealous, he's not into wheelin that much anymore.

And with the locker, I"m not gonna wheelin this thing much more, it's more for scenic runs now and towing the sammi

And no haven't bought the sammi yet, just started looking, but I have some pretty big plans for it!

<< The only thing that bothers me is that my rpm's around 75 mph are at 2900. Anything below 65 is awesome, but once you get faster, the rpm's start climbing at 2500. Oh well, I guess it will make me speed less. >>

theres nothing wrong with that! the engine has high RPMs, but its not working as hard to turn your wheels!
