No, can't be, not holding a Coors Light.  You know its not really wake surfing unless you are holding a beer, the ultimate wake surfing achievement/trick.

1: Ha! I laugh big time. My crew scoffs. Sooo many posts regarding winterizing your boat. What? Never done it and ride year round here in San Diego. I know the tower on a ski nautique will also push a few buttons, but I don't need a wake to launch with the sit down foil higher than I want to go and my ski babes like the wake. Closed cooling system, manifolds and risers every 3 years, salt boat. 10 minutes to here from my house.
Have a nice winter and stay safe :)

Where in San Diego are you?  We have a home in Linda Vista.  I’ve skied Mission Bay on New Years Day.  Can’t do that in Utah...

Johnny,
I live in Clairemont Mesa. I like the winter because the colder temps discourage the jet fleas on the bay :) There is quite the crew here. We ride on San Vicente reservoir in the big boats that don't go in salt water. Here's a pic from last Sunday. 60 degree water 68 air.

Daryn,
Many states do have regulations regarding spotters or mirrors without spotters but I'm not aware if drivers are mentioned.

It's mid February.  Wednesday night.  I'm boycotting the Beijing Winter Olympics tonight -- I've hit my limit on dude skaters wearing pastel-colored chiffon blouses my Mom would be thrilled to own.  My fancy new Blue Oval F350 is at the dealership with a bad Crankshaft Position Sensor.  CPS is "backordered".  And to make matters worse...THERE ARE NO JUICY THREADS ON CCF RIGHT NOW.  

Mrs. Quest wants to watch a "chick flick" on The Hallmark Channel together.  Maybe I'll go back to figure skating...

I may not survive the evening.

The Olympics this year.  All the stories coming out of there say its a nightmare for the athletes.  And ya gotta love those beautiful alpine vistas at the Chernobyl Snowboard Park.

How about Ford vs. Ram.  I just ordered a big black beast, RAM 3500.  There's probably not much difference these days as far as reliability is concerned.  The 2003 F-150 I am currently driving has been the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned so I decided to switch to RAM.   Go figure.  I ordered it from a dealership in Louisiana so I hope the drive home goes well.

Boycott the chick flick and watch the Olympics!  We really enjoy the Olympics, would never consider not watching.  Am watching right now, just saw Chloe Kim win a gold medal in half pipe.

That park with the cooling towers is pretty interesting, was the first large scale steel mill and has been repurposed into this park.  There is a plan to turn one of the towers into a wedding venue.

I'm sure the truck will get sorted out and will run great for you.  My friend's 2019 F250 Powerstroke is running with no issues, I think around 80,000 miles and really a great truck.
