  1. I live one concession east of Cashtown Corners. Our snow will be mostly gone in the fields (where it was all wind blown) and only the big drifts will be left, trails are closed, and what is left will be ice when it freezes.... This winter is great this year!
  2. ya... I tried to fix it twice. you get the point haha
  3. I was at St Onge in Barrie last Thursday or Friday, they have a Triton sitting out front on display. May be worth it to give them a call and see if its claimed? I took a pic to show you. I don't know much about the trailers to know if its what you'd want.
  4. Creemore area got 9-10" and still snowing
  5. You mean like they did with the Mustang Mach-E? Took the highly regarded muscle car name, put the rear hatch from the Escape on it and stuck an electric sewing machine motor on it..
  6. I'm near Creemore. Got another 7-8" yesterday and overnight. And it has just started snowing again..
  7. Wow, read the comments at the bottom of the article...
  8. Just wanted to pop in and say that I just saw St Onge in Barrie just posted they are having a sale on the BRP Oxygen helmet.. Normally $775, on sale for $599. My dad has the helmet and loves it, as I know a bunch of other people do, but the price deters a lot of people.. Thought the sale may help. Says they have L, XXL and XXXL available.

  10. Just heard on the radio that a snowmobiler was in an accident this passed weekend and used this app to locate himself for responding emergency personnel
  11. I rode on Tuesday on my local trails around Stayner/Wasaga/Collingwood area. The trail crosses my dirt road roughly 500' from the edge of my property, and actually runs around the edge of my field to the next concession road north of me, but it is currently still closed. Instead of hopping on it anyways, I rode passed the the trail (and all of the tracks that were on it) and rode the shoulder of a main paved road for 5kms to where the trail was open. It sucked, but it's the right thing to do. And I am on a "long track" sled, and STILL don't trespass and rip up every farmers field or ride on closed trails! And I don't have an obnoxious exhaust either! If my 2.5" paddle track can ride almost bare roads to get to open trails if you wanna ride that bad... than so can everyone elses "trail sleds".
  12. I'd say 4" or so between Stayner and Creemore area... Hard to tell exactly. Wind and farm fields carry the snow a bit differently.
  13. I agree with this. I get roughly 14-15 US mpg when towing (16' enclosed with 2 sleds on sled deck) or 20-22 US mpg unloaded on the highway cruising
  14. I drive a 2020 2500HD Duramax and it replaced my 2017 2500HD Duramax. The new truck has the new 10 speed Allison which is awesome and I thought it would be even better on fuel than my 2017 which had the 6 speed. I don't know if its because the new design is bigger, boxier and has bigger tires than the 2017s, but I actually find that I'm getting slightly lower mileage than my last truck which was a little annoying. I drive VERY conservative (my wife says I'm slow and it annoys her) and mostly drive backroads as I live in the middle of nowhere. When towing, I also think it is slightly worse in the mileage as well. My 2017 would be between 9.5-11 L/100kms with probably low to mid 10s be average. My lowest on the display was 8.6L/100kms. My 2020 has gotten into the 10s, but not very often. Usually my average is mid 12s. My lowest on the display being 10.0L/100kms. Not saying your buddies aren't ever getting under 10, but I don't think they are getting that on average. I think may be trying to stretch it a bit. I agree with everything else you said more or less...
