Daily prayers for your speedy recovery..

If I may offer a counter argument, I am in the back of my group and the snow dust is crazy. Generally I hold back far enough it has settled down. What I have heard from others is these led’s pierce the dust so they know there is another sled after hitting my group in front. At night they are...

Happy Birthday Paul. Hope you are out enjoying last night’s snow by us.

What Abe said or check for bad ground or frayed wire.

Last week we based out of Munising (close to Buckhorn). Sunday, down 7 to Big Springs(good) back up Haywire (moguls). Monday, 8, 43, 9 to Wolf (got beat up, little grooming outside of AlgerSorva- but it was after a big traffic weekend). Tuesday, Big Bay (417, 8, 14, 5, all good to great)...

Disassembled looks like the debris field from my sled last week 😁. But I still made it 90 miles back to camp.

I was there late last week. All good but the logging after Gwinn towards 5 seemed to last several miles. We had to wait while a truck loaded up on the trail/road as there was little room to pass. 8 Ishpeming to Marquette got a little choppy while Marquette to Gwinn was good.

So far. 7 down to Big Springs good. 2 okay. Haywire got rumbly. 8 by end of day was used. High traffic this past weekend. Today was 8 east to 43, 88, 431, 9 . Some good and some rumbles. I feel it tonight. I am hoping the groomers will hit all the trails in the next day especially with the...

Grocery getter is what it is. Motorhome is camping and pick up for sledding.

Mine is rated for 5k towing. Based on people’s comments pulling Airstream trailers out west it appears EVs take a 50% decrease in range towing. Factors like hills, a/c, heat, ambient temps all make a difference. The only towing mine will see is moving the trailer in the yard if I am too lazy to...

I have a Charge Point home charger. It is wireless and app driven so it keeps all that in the history by month.

For what it is worth my F150 & EV were within $10k msrp. My Michigan no fault insurance is roughly 40% for the EV. I can only speculate the difference is related to american top selling vehicle (parts availability) vs German. My concerns are for passengers and EMS safety with batteries. Has...

Not disagreeing with your points. My EV does look like a regular auto which is what I want. Sadly they have a “sound” device that puts out a spaceship sound to protect pedestrians from not knowing a car is nearby. Audi actually pumped sound into the cab on my former Q7 diesel because you could...

You will pay. Some places are free and usually they are no better than a house outlet, maybe replace a couple miles for an hour of charging. Some Tesla’s have free nationwide charging at a Tesla charger. I opened a app and looked around at my local chargers. One showed a 65kw charge and the...

Thought I would revisit this post as we seem to be talking autos on the Electric Snowmobile post and that just isn’t fair to the original poster. One year results on my EV ownership as of this week. Here are some numbers to consider. Distance driven = 4,264 miles Kwh consumed = 1,986kwh Home...

Battery packs can/should have individual cells that you replace the bad cell and not the complete battery pack. Some manufacturers cars can not replace a cell. I know my Audi and I believe Tesla can replace cells whereas the Bolt is complete battery pack. Used values are insane just like...

Go to youtube and there is a guy in Norway or Finland that had to have the whole battery pack on a 2013 Telsa replaced, $22k. He had the car blowup with dynamite.

Level 1 charging: ~14 hours Level 2 charging: ~3 hours Level 3 charging: ~30 minutes Level 1 is an standard home outlet. Level 2 is a 240v 50amp plug ( my home charger is level 2). Level 3 would be commercial. The current sled is estimated at 20~25kwh. My EV is 95kwh with a claimed range in...

Heading up there this Saturday for the week. If I think of it I will post conditions. We base out by Buckhorn and 16 Mile lake and get to Big Bay, Republic, Tahquamenon ..

Welcome back! How is your father down in Illinois doing? As I recall he had an altercation with a thug a couple years ago. Thank you for all your support of the trails in the area.
