And the final question just to make the father in law somewhat happy
After I ride my slide, and I stop it, theres smoke/steam coming from the back end. I tried to explain to him with the weather but he wasn't satisfied with that. So I decided to take a quick video of it
I have a bad cold right now so I can't really decide if its exhaust or steam.
If its smoke, why would it be coming out the back? The exhaust goes out the front so yeah.
It does smoke somewhat but its not terrible.
I posted it to youtube so you decide and verify my thoughts. I rode it for 5 minutes or so out back

Without even watching the video I can tell you its steam. Hot rear cooler with cold snow and ice on it will make steam.

^^^ yep the heat exchangers are under the tunnel,and when its cold,and they are warm or when snow is melting off them steam will bilow out the rear.Kinda like when a car goes thru a large puddle and steam comes out from underneath cuz water hit the hot exhaust.

Steam for sure from the coolers. Looks normal unless it has a sweet smell to it.
