Hard to argue with that - but I haven't broken a single part this year...

When I bought a new 18 in 2019, and retired my 2006, I definitely noticed a difference in packing for trips without having to pack spare parts...

It's a hike but I think it's the only way we're going to ride this year. Was also looking at Quebec but conditions are just ok there and I'd rather not spend the travel time and extra money to go that way if conditions aren't up to normal there.

Looking at going West next week. We've been to the snowies (about 12 years ago) but another guy mentioned looking at Grand Lake area but I don't know anything about it. We've been out west renting and bringing our sleds. This trip will be with our trail sleds. Wondering if anyone here has some...

49r's had their chances. Think they had 2 3rd and 4th's - one towards the end of regulation and one in OT that they really needed to convert, and both got blown up on not covering a blitz.

I don't much about tug hill but that it's supposedly super busy. Beggers can't be choosers and all so I'll do some homework...

For this year I'd be ok with driving 20 hrs. We have 3 guys so not that big of a deal. Probably put in 5 or 6 after work and then eat a day traveling the next. Then drive straight through on the back end. Might have to get creative or we won't be spinning them at all. Hopefully it gets cold and...

I'm thinking maine or quebec. Not sure about AZ but I can't swing the rental costs out west this year at least.

Aint that the truth. The big dogs have never been so big.

We're planning on driving somewhere on the 21st. No idea where at this point.

Yes you can either download the maps or get a chip from him to install. You can use silicone to mostly waterproof them. https://www.snowtechmagazine.com/poormans-snowmobile-gps-solution/ I've seen people running smaller tablets or even their phones, but I think you'd have to find one that can...

Just depends on what you want to spend. In our group we have cheapo nuvi's with vv mapping trails on them. Garmin tread is on the other end of the expense side.

No interest. Had a 90's jeep for a long time that wasn't all that much different especially with the windshield down than the modern sxs' I've driven (although the jeep was a heck of a lot cheaper) and eventually got bored with it. If it doesn't snow this year, I'll ride next year. Or we'll...

Good to hear you're on the mend.

Meant to say I'm NOT worried about the engine. So pretty much the exact opposite of what I meant to say :) I'm buying mostly for the kids but I think I'll look into clutching, etc. to wake it up a bit. My twins are 12 now but around when they were 7 or 8, I loved riding around with them on...

I'm getting one of those doo 900's thingies from a relative, mainly for the kids, but I can see myself taking it on Ontario trips too. I've ridden around with it with my kids on it quite a bit when they were smaller but I don't know much about it. Has some miles on it but I'm worried about the...

Yeah he's on FB. I despise FB but I was looking to buy something a couple years ago and wanted to look on their classified so I set up an acct with a fake name, using a email address set up with a fake name, and run in only in firefox container, and I pretty much only use to check snow...

yamaha got out due to global emissions targets. Their sled line was profitable - how could it not be given no R&D and dealers crying for more product to sell. They are now investing in electric bikes as a growth market. Textcat has a 4 stroke in development.

The Midwest weather guy says things are going to change around 2nd week of Feb. and then beyond that. Fingers crossed he's right. He predicted the polar vortex or whatever that was weeks out. Sounds like most of the northwoods will be starting over by then.

We were supposed to drive up tomorrow but cancelled/postponed to the 2nd half of February. Usually do two 5 day trips. Maybe just one this year, and might need to put more miles on the truck to make it happen. I thought I was emotionally prepared given John's forecast but I'm bummed anyway. But...
