    Need some feedback on a Ski Doo MXZ TNT 900 ACE

    Looks like right around 7 Grand according to J.D. Power. https://www.nadaguides.com/Motorcycles/2017/Ski-Doo/MXZ-BLIZZARD-900-ACE_-899cc/Values Less if it's a private party. I have the same machine and would buy another. Love it! Gary

    I'm not sure if the other brands had the freebies but I recall that Cat did. In our case, our new Cat came with a case of Snobil Oil. (spelled correctly) It came in one quart cans and was green in color. I can't recall what I had for lunch yesterday but I do remember that case of oil and what it...

    The Namesake

    Kelly's correct, "Balls Out" is an old Steam Engine term. In snowmobile language, "Pinned to the Bars" might compare. As the illustration shows, the faster the balls/governor spin, centrifugal force causes them to spread out horizontally and further opening the throttle. Whatever you're riding...

    Happy Birthday UP

    Actually, it was for a short time. When the Michigan Territory was first established in 1805, it included only the Lower Peninsula and the eastern portion of the Upper Peninsula. In 1819, the territory was expanded to include the remainder of the Upper Peninsula, all of what later became...

    Much less for us in the Fox Cities. We've been on the edge of the storm and it didn't start snowing until 5 or 6 this morning. Maybe a couple/three inches I would guess to be our totals. Big warm up coming on Wednesday, Christmas is two weeks away, a White Christmas? Sure hope so...

    That's a good question. Most of us gravitate to the newer items and trends as snowmobiling and gear have been improving since the days of your Homelite. I think my Gear Bag may be 20 years old but everything else has been upgraded over time.

    All Things Christmas...

    I thought we'd start a thread surrounding the holiday. You can post anything you like as long as it pertains to Christmas. I've posted before of my most memorable Christmas was the year that Dad had a new Arctic Cat delivered on Christmas Eve. Rode it in circles around the yard until it was time...
