I believe it went for $775. 105” is what I’ve been told. They never weighed this one. So this is what they mean by a “blanket beaver”

So I took another look at the picture and the head end looks like it could be pretty bloodshot. you can vote your way into socialism, but you will have to shoot your way out.
