Anyone who knows anything about snowmobiles knows that a description means nothing. You have to check them out in person- plain and simple. UP miles, wife's sled. Always funny. I'm a chick- I have an 800 Dragon. I ride harder than most of the men I know. Sold my old 800 with 5K miles on it (all from me). I think the only bonus on the 'chick' sleds is the suspension. We tend to be smaller & lighter. So the suspensions are usually in better shape. However- as most of you noted- many wives are riding hand me downs that have already been beat up on, so even that small bonus goes away.

That's funny snowmonkey =) Last trip we met some guys in the bar at the hotel and were chatting about sleds- I mentioned that I was looking forward to my warranty expiring next year so I can do some upgrades. Dream updates- the whole SLP package... pipe, can, reeds, POWER COMMANDER. The guy at the bar looks at my husband and says- where did you find her??
Actually my wife's sled is a 2004 Ski Doo GSX 500ss. It is just shy of 13,000 miles. I probably rode it 10% of those miles mostly to try it out before switching from my Polaris.
Now she has tried the 2010 E Tec Renegade we bought last spring. She really likes it so now she used it 2 of the 3 days on our last trip. The 3rd day I got to ride it by myself.
My old 05 SD MZX 500ss has 10,000 miles.
I'm just happy she rides.

I lived in Waterloo Ia where this pinky sled is. It has been ridin thru cornfields and rode ditches so it doesn't matter who rode it, it has been beat! Not like the trails I can ride on here in Iron River WI, my new hometown! She probably wasn't out there to go fast, just look good!!!!
my parent have aways boghten the same cc sleds so they had equal machines both 800 now and my fiances sled is hers and only hers i only load it and she has an 800. but i think maybe 5 percent of sledders are wifes only rest have been handed down or bought from youger guys wanting to get different sled
