Sometimes people forget to do the simple math and work the 2 options out.

Another reason to get things gone - dealing with the stupidity of selling anything on the various online platforms. One of the other good things forums can be great for, the buy and sell section.

3k on taxes and not had to deal with kijiji or Facebook marketplace BS - priceless

People get caught up in the what it is worth to me vs. what it is worth to others/market can bear......the latter of the two will usually see success, the first, not so much...... I was just talking to a friend who is selling a used vehicle, they are stuck on 27K mark for it, dealer offered 23K when they bought their new one......stupid thing is they would have saved almost 3K in taxes on the trade in......lol.

Good job. I noticed market is flooded with used atv's people are trying to get rid of. Might be a good time to replace my 2011 or keep it as a back up bike. It gets used almost every day here on farm.

Thats it right there. If your priced fair in a current market, serious buyers know it and not so inclined to try beating you up. They know if they do, they get shown the door.

Sold my sons last dirt bike in 3 days too -priced it fair - took $200.00 less - wanted it gone. guy showed up - looked at it - started it up - said we're good. That was it

I sold an 8 foot box popup last summer that weighed in at just over 1000 dry. A guy working in BC sent his father from elliot lake to owen sound for pick it up. From the time I posted it till he got here I had well over 100 replies. It was insane. I listed one of my boats yesterday and it was sold in ten minutes by a fella from parry sound. Didnt want a water test, didnt want to see it run on muffs. Just pulled the cover off threw it in the truck and left. I guess folks are willing to travel for a good deal. I dont like sitting on things I'm selling, just want em gone.

Yup

I said 2.30 a few weeks ago by July and I got everything thrown at me for that. 🤣 government behind it they want gas vehicles off the road and into electrics.

$2.00 a litre regular gas coming soon. the fire sale will follow in behind that

Yes some pop up campers maybe that price but There are a number of manufacturers selling your standard type travel trailers in smaller configurations aimed at the smaller tow vehicle and budget crowd. Some of these trailers may only be 7’ wide single axle now also. I have seen many of these on road in last couple years How many families have an SUV? Now they can camp. How many times have comments on this page stated sled manufacturers need a low priced entry level sled?. Camping trailer manufacturers are at that point.

A tent trailer is around 26,000. A nice hard top side one where ends just fold out and you have access to most of trailer when ends are folded in is around 45,000 ish depending on options. Those have full size fridges and stoves and nicer washroom. Motor homes are closer to quarter million dollars now 🤣.

Most are $20 - 50,000 I believe. Some higher priced. A lot of smaller SUV towable

Good luck. Maybe you find someone willing to sell with increasing fuel prices. Volume of those motor homes is allot less then trailers. They defiantly hold value pretty good these days. You want to go to Florida too and camp out in Walmart parking lots along the way. My buddy always did that. He joked he saved enough on camp sites to cover a portion of fuel bill 😀.

Looking for a c class moter home. They sure not fallen yet..

Whats considered "lower price" trailers? Im trying to sell mine with zero luck currently ..

A buddy of mine sells lower priced camper trailers. They are selling units like crazy. He has been there since mid January and cannot believe the volume of trailers they have moved.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/new-rv-sales-down-1.7168266 Applies to sleds too - add in that the activity is 100% weather dependent............ Big time market correction on the way.

You guys up there basically had no winter season,how very sad . Good thing you also have summer toys.😃

Maybe researching crime rates or checking websites to find out how dangerous the city you are planning to visit is and enjoy your holidays is a good idea, especially if you're unfamiliar with the area. Does anyone have a favourite resource they use to research travel safety? Or maybe any tips for staying safe on a road trip in general? Hearing from folks who've done the Gaspe trip before would be especially helpful! Thanks!

It's official, river ice is gone. Ski

Ah! I forgot that the Hornepayne / Hearst trail goes to Mooseland first these days. I haven't been on the new trail yet. .

Blue bird day today. River ice is breaking apart, lots of warm temps coming. Apple friiters are being made in Batchawana at the Voyager now... Smelt and spring are coming. Ski

With all that said, your best bet unless dead set on Longlac is... Wawa to Hearst, and over night. Then stay in the Hearst area a few days riding the local loops (they have a bunch of good day riding), then back to Wawa the same way. Without Halfway Haven it is really a fuel mileage crapshoot if you can loop from Hearst to Timmins (225 miles), Timmins to Chapleau 175 miles, Chapleau to where Halfway was (60 miles), with no fuel, services and back to Wawa from there (75-80 trail miles). Keep us posted on your trip, many of us can help you decide, and give info. Good luck! Ski
