  1. The first storm to hit Toronto was in 1999? Seriously? How did y'all make it through the mid/late 70's / early 80's unscathed? Other than "looks like someone is dooing sumpthing/anything", what on Earth is an armoured personnel carrier going to doo to help the situation?
  2. My sleds are parked somewhere worthy of pulling the tether so little of the time.... LOL! I kind'a forget aboot it.
  3. Not puting a "closed" sign up, and to us the app? Seriously? And then fussing b/c someone rode through when it's not posted? We don't all check online guides when we ride. Heck, some of us don't even have a computor in our pocket. (believe it) If there wasn't a sign, then no-one has any business being upset at someone riding through.
  4. So, suffice to say that your competition is all local, and also has to deal with the same laws and fees as you doo?
  5. Couch, are in manufacturing?
  6. Well, I have two 1 ton trucks, but I have no clue what they cost. I haven't handled the day to day $ here in 25 yrs.
  7. Isn't that hut on Res property? I still am not following your truck ins thing? Is there some other truck or ins line item for being parked or driven to the dam? I've been there in my buddy's 'Burban and I'm purty sure that he didn't have anything special. Who's buying anything special for this application? I don't git'cher train of thought here.
  8. I knew there was an issue with the loggers, but I didn't realize that they closed it already! I thought that they were posting a concern. What's the issue with SRF? They're just running up the hydro - aint they? Just lack of help?
  9. I'm not following the guide, but in following this thread, I was under the assumption that one side of the loop was open, and one side .... grey area at best. Isn't the one side fully open?
  10. Well, I doubt that load's gunna help many folks reading this site....
  11. "Wind chill factor" is not a real thing to inanimate objects. It's good to not let the wind blow snow dust into your cabin overnight, but it will not make any difference on the temp of the motor or battery in the morning. I cannot believe this, but this subject has come up 2wice for me already this morning.
  12. I understand that you're not going to pull start it. Tilton doesn't build starters for that motor? Doo you have a gen set for the trailer then? Or a rectifier from the truck maybe?
  13. Well, back when you could actually get to the spark plugs, you could pull the plugs in the morning and whip it over a few times or so with the choke on, and then put the plugs back in and likely fire next pull. IDK what to doo with these new things? I installed a secondary recoil on my e-start sled tho! (2str) After watching the 4st guys on cold mornings at Halfway, I decided that if I had that set-up, that me and a buddy should set them up so that you could pull off of both batts to get the first sled running, and then doo the other. Also - take the batts inside if at all possible if it's that cold. The thought of heading out into the bush on a machine that won't start in the cold just doesn't sound like a good plan to me. I s'pose if you are running busy trails near home - that's a horse of a differn't colour, but ... What's a 1049? Is that the M8/F8 motor? Or is that a newer Yamahahahaha motor?
  14. Cash only retail? Maybe on snickers bars. On a $100 fill up?
  15. Insurance on trucks? $5000 ins for what? Liability? I doubt they are going to (willing to) pay much for fire/theft eh? Are they even cooking anything?
  16. Yeah, I thought that it kind'a looked cornfusing. If y'all look, I had that in quotations. The facebook link came up as "This content not available currently" I added the "knob" part. As if Facebook [Canada] was saying that to me.
  17. Well, they'll shout it from the top of Jeep Hill anyhow. Not sure who's gunna hear it, but they can shout it all day long.
  18. "This content not available you knob!" Must have been fake news and got deleted?
  19. I don't think that overheating is likely going to be a major concern here.
  20. I'm guessing that the reason for no zerk is b/c they now have a sealed bearing. If you pushed grease in from the other side, you would likely blow the seal off the track side. Where the older units likely had open bearings with a secondary seal inside that you COULD actually push grease through w/o hurting. Been quite some time since I've had one of those apart! Keep grease in it - and the bearings don't go bad. LOL! I've never used a needle gun.
  21. At today's winds, that lake effect may end up falling in QB in stead.
