  1. Thought this belonged in here, remember all in good fun please!!!
  2. Talked to dealer to get clarification on the 'internet rumors' I've been hearing. They said yes they have sleds shipped in crates missing gauges, mostly X and XRS's, and as the gauges arrive the sled's are PDI'd and sent out. Almost all of the base type sleds are coming complete and on a regular basis. They have been told that the Mach Z's will be coming complete and they expect to start seeing them mid November. As a side note they completely sold out their yearly allowance of sleds during spring-check and will have nothing on the showroom floor, bad for consumers but great for anyone who didn't trade their sled in, used market should be insane again
  3. Glad I held on to my sleds and didn't trade them in. Trails around here are not usually ready until mid Jan, so we are usually just running around on the ice and through the swamps to hold us off
  4. Question, is the foundation built on bedrock? Ours is and the rock maintains warmth through out the winter as longs as the basement is sealed and insulated well
  5. Yep, loved that motor, had several of them but heavy throttle started to bother me as I got older, that and the hanging idle
  6. I'll take them, just south of you so no shipping. If I can figure it out i'll pm you
  7. Thanks, I will mention it to him. I suspect he will keep the higher windshield only because he quite often brings grandson along with him
  8. Son ordered a Tundra with the 600EFI engine. He also has a Turbo Nytro but with the closed trails in our area we found a whole new enjoyable sledding experience through the swamps and bush. Think at $9699 this sled is a bargain
  9. Bought one of these two years ago, happy with it so far. First thing I did when arriving home was to soak axle, springs and attaching bracket area with Rust Check
  10. He'll be 3 this fall, young I know but the price is right so we'll keep it until he can handle it. He's been riding with Dad since he was 14 months old, absolutely loves it. This is him on Dad's mint 89 Jag 340
  11. Ordered this for the Grandson, will be his Christmas gift. After searching out 'Covid' pricing on used ones I decided to order new, was a no brainer. Why pay $3-3500 for a 10 year old mini sled when $3665 gets you a spring order. No frt or pdi through AC dealer, Yamaha wanted $3995 plus $500 frt and taxes, so Green it is!
  12. Congrats!!....I'm out of ' Like's' for the day apparently lol
  13. Mach Z. Dealer said they have 'Spring Ordered' over 80% of their yearly allowance so far. Guess used sleds will still be at a premium
  14. Bought one there last year, it's an Avalanche, so far so good. First thing I did when I got it home was to empty a half dozen cans of 'Rust Check' on it, paying particular attention to area's where aluminum frame and metal axle brackets mount
  15. Is this from last year? There is no Sat Mar 21st
  16. Laid my money down this morning
  17. Perhaps, just a thrifty shopper lol. Also priced out a Tundra for the son, quoted full MSRP plus freight and PDI, again, repeat customer
  18. Yeah have a feeling that's the way it's going to be. I'm a repeat customer, perhaps helped, but used to getting considerably more off
  19. Have fun Revrnd, love it up there but haven't been for several years, some time life gets in the way of sledding
  20. I've been mulling over a Mach Z, surprised the dealer would only discount $500 off MSRP, offered free PDI but $550 for freight. Guess supply and demand Would appreciate knowing if anyone else is getting better discounts this year
  21. Rode 200 kilometers today in District 10, our first ride of the season, low sled traffic but picked up by the time we got home. Left Pointe au Baril and ended up at Jake's in Port Loring. They had 'Sledder's Special" posted in window, take out only. They were very thankful for us stopping, at 12:30 we were their first sledding customers of the day. No sign of OPP yet, was actually surprised.
