I don't know if there is anyone from Puerto Rico, but we are about to get hit by this category 5 hurricane, Irma, with constant 185 mph winds and 200 mph gust.

I had to move to my sisters house since my home is in a flood area and also had to move the teener.

My wife did a little video while going to my sisters house.

First time on the freeway and under heavy rain. I lost half of the exhaust but made it.

Wish you luck, and praying for the people of Puerto Rico. Hopefully your preparation will get you safely through. Do keep us posted, as a first hand experience is better than the garbage on the news...

Nice 914. I have to move mine tomorrow to high ground. I live in south Florida on an island.
Good luck and keep your family safe. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Good Luck!

At least I don't have to worry about a 914! I sold mine yesterday and it's already heading to Michigan

Those 914 guys. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) they always seem compelled to leave the support vehicle in the dust. Or in this case rain. I think DURING a hurricane is a chart topper. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Smart move. Stay safe.

I was just in St. Maarten, Anguilla and PR this last March. Unbelieveable.

Hang tough there and my prayers are with all of the Carribean people.

Wishing you all the luck in the 914world. Be safe and get the teener off the ground it doesn't take to many inches to be on the inside of a 914!
