    What is your favorite UP ghost story or "haunted" location?

    As I said before you own the stock and it’s value goes up and down. Personally I would never take a 40% loss and sell at or the near bottom of the market. Timing the market is impossible so imo take your lumps and in time you will recover. If you don’t have the stomach for equities you probably...

    So many brands what do you think is the working man’s vehicle in 2022? V8s you got to be kidding turbo 4s took over in all wheel cars 2015-2016. Bench seats went out in the 60s buckets took over. Cell phones evolved from bricks and bags to hand held computers took awhile but excellent expensive...

    That’s a great idea to discount for early purchase I like that. WI doesn’t do that or any clubs I know but excellent idea.

    SnowTech Editorial Scary Snowmobiling Future

    WI has a diverse climate and riders in the south usually don’t buy trail permits until it snows. All of it is done online and you can ride on paper until sticker arrives. Up north it’s different you know it will snow sooner or later so no return to hold out. UP is the same but more convenient...

    SnowTech Editorial Scary Snowmobiling Future

    I never saw lack of interest in joining Vilas Clubs yes lack of participation in actually volunteering to do trail work. The perk for $10 trail permits definitely gives incentive to join. Most clubs do brat fries or picnics to meet and greet. Imo you need to attend a couple of meetings to get...

    I agree some clubs won’t be compatible with your expectations. When that happens visit another club see how you fit in there. I’ve used to rotate my membership from club to club and stayed in touch with all of them. In Vilas many many choices and I rode all their trails so sometimes you join...

    Anyone in Florida right now?

    Going to have to think long and hard about rebuilding Sanibel. How and what kind of structures? Sanibel is a barrier island not so sure it should be anything but that with nice beaches.

    Good point current EVs will need to be turned over quickly. If battery technology improves as we hope no one will want this first generation EVs unless dirt cheap. I wouldn’t be interested in one especially trucks. My all wheel grocery getter ice gets 30mpg+gets filled maybe 16 gallons every 5...

    Let’s assume CA doesn’t change and allow sale of ice Vs there will be ice dealers on the border of all states surrounding CA. There is always work around solutions for air head laws. Maybe liberals lose control of CA who knows. I sure wouldn’t live there cost of living is nuts!

    The Keystone pipeline would have contributed to the world oil supply which is desperate for oil and gas. Keystone would be flowing full force if Biden had continued the funded project. Currently the world needs all the oil it can get. If battery technology can improve it would help EV market to...

    It doesn’t help when Biden says he ways to stop the use of oil and fossil fuel, limits oil leases , shuts down the keystone pipeline and today says Ma And Pa don’t price gouge at the pump in FL. Lol. Everyone’s at fault but him. Sure Covid hurt but well past time to make adjustments to get...

    Trail 2 - Losing a section due to change of ownership

    Snowriver nuked the snowmobile business in the Big Snow country. Drop a bomb and yes you get backlash. Maybe misunderstood the insurance situation, maybe thought they were eliminating a personal nuisance only they know for sure. Hopefully the trail stays open!

    I don’t think anyone wants to derail EV just need to have a legitimate transition plan. Cheap oil slows down the transition to a gradual cut to electric. It’s obvious that eliminating domestic oil and refining was a big mistake that blew up inflation. There is only so much oil reserves left to...
