It’s the Ford Extended Warranty bought from Granger Ford out of Iowa, they have the warranty priced just above cost.

I made the jump back to Ford in June 2023, found a used 2021 F-150 Lariat 5.0 V-8 crew cab with way more options than just about any truck needs! I’m pretty happy with it as I’m consistently getting 20 MPG highway with it unloaded. I feel like one aspect of the truck that has been a real...

Thanks!

Happy New Year everyone!

We canceled for this weekend in Eagle River, we have another planned for Manitowish Waters for the end of this month which I’m starting to wonder if that one will be a possibility!

I will be riding the 2020 Skidoo Grand Touring 900 ACE and the 2002 Yamaha SX Viper 700 triple 2 stroke. Both run great, would love a Sidewinder but I don’t see that happening anytime soon as I bought a new to me used 2021 Ford F-150 Lariat Crew Cab truck to haul the snowmobiles.

I am saddened to read the news of John's passing. He touched so many of us with this site and his open sharing of his life with Nora, Grace and four legged furry family members. I will forever be grateful for his contribution to the snowmobile community and how he brought many of us together via...

There is a YouTube video out there focusing on towing with the new all electric Ford Lightning, the guy testing it loads an old Model A or T on a trailer & proceeds to pull it back to his house & the range dropped to 80 miles within a short amount into the trip. Sorry I don’t have the link, but...

I did see the post on Facebook about John also, I don’t visit here as often in the off season, but I’m sending him speedy recovery vibes here like I did there. Get well soon John!!!

I have to say that I’m definitely NOT surprised that the Milwaukee Show is done. It has been declining for years! I have attended that show for years, back in the day before the new building it took up multiple buildings and there were so many deals to be had! Once the new building was...

Wow! Awesome job and very impressive! I’m 50 years old & couldn’t imagine taking on a project of that size. I would need to seriously work on my physical condition to ever be close to try to build something of that magnitude, that & I’m not very good at construction. Congrats on your dream...

These are from today near Manitowish Waters & heading towards Boulder Junction

I’m heading to Manitowish Waters in the morning.

Thanks for the real world update, my wife and I are tentatively coming to Manitowish Waters for the weekend and leave on Tuesday next week. Unfortunately my wife sounded a little on the sick side this morning, so we are "playing it by ear". Hopefully we can make it happen!

This right here is what I call my "backyard". I have a cabin just south of Fifield that I purchased in 2001. I know all of these trails extremely well & really enjoy riding them. My wife & I got engaged on the covered bridge, it is one of her favorite places up there! Unfortunately I have not...
