    Maybe they put skates on the horses hooves and rolled them downhill? I thought I saw a GPS mounted between the horses ears on one of 'em!
    Good thing it isnt in Kommunistfornia, CARB would be in ticket heaven for em releasing methane gas.

    A lot of these "cowboys" are just like the rolex riders that jump on their scooters on Sundays so they can put in a whopping 50 miles making the rounds from one icehouse to the next while decked out in their designer leathers.

    Then they go to their offices on Monday & talk about how tired they are after their exhausting ride.

    Besides there aren't too many places left in these parts that aren't fenced & claimed as private property so it isn't like they have a lot of choice about their routes. The cowboys, not the rolex riders I mean.

    We solved that problem....Horses and cattle are each fitted with a particulate filter...... Goats however need an additional unit similar to an SCR ..:biggrin_25523:

    I'm glad Texas still has places for horses......Norco, CA......The "Dually Capitol" of the world... Bills itself as "Horse Town USA"......not many horses left there or in Mira Loma to the N/E....

    Nah!!! The true rolex riders just lease their horses. It's cheaper since they won't put many miles on them & that way they can get a new one for next years trailride.

    Besides just because someone owns a horse doesn't make them a cowboy. Feeding them & going on an occassional weekend ride is a hobby.

    You wouldn't call a polo player a cowboy just because he rides a horse while doing it would you?

    Dang lol. I won't get into this but why ride a horse for a short time just so you can go back into your lexus car. The real cowboys are the ranchers that ride those horses more than that lexus get's moved. But let them have there fun. Im no cowboy myself but i wouldn't want to be like the rolex riders. Edit: Nice truck solo. Where in houston are you?
