We all “know” it has to go up. Common sense would tell you that. On the flip side though, put yourself in the OFSC shoes. The #1 complaint ( for reasons I can’t understand ) is the cost of the permit. it is impossible for them to put the permit price to where it should be, and keep people sledding. They can’t win in any facet. All they can do is look to reduce expenditures if they are not going to increase permit costs, all the while trying to increase ridership and permit sales. there is only so much $$$ to go around.

Tough, but I can see both sides of this, common ground will surface at some point.

Different dealer. Rockland is the one that was blowing out the brand new units I think?

Not spectacular, but decent value https://aberfoylepowersports.com/New-Inventory/adid/37101410/2025-ARCTIC-CAT-ZR-600-129-SNO-PRO-ACS5-ES-HUGE-SAVINGS-Puslinch-ON/

Depending on the dealer, might be the same guy we bought our Evo off. Guy buys 4 or 5 new sleds every year

Hopefully under new ownership things will be addressed.

Very good. Nice to see some positive news on sledding.

Most people that buy them, buy them for a reason and to ride them a certain way. I wouldn't buy one used personally

Looks good!

Understood. anything can happen at anytime - hence why people sell/buy insurance. It really comes down to what your risk appetite is. I bought a Pro X 600 in 2004 - 3400 miles on it with no issues My dad bought an XC 600 in 2004 - we got them at the same time. His had a catastrophic engine failure just outside of Whitney with less than 700 miles on it and he spent his valentines in Whitney waiting for CAA to pick him up. You just never know anyway, good luck with the sled

Like anything and everything to do with insurance - the price does not mean anything without the details. The information you need to know is the coverage being provided, what limitations or exclusions exist, and then the price.

We live in the city - there is a reason my kid does not wash his dirt bike in the driveway - it's in the backyard only!

Well, you haven’t lost until you sell. 2008 rebounded if you didn’t panic. i assume people “banking” on certain investments etc to retire today aren’t happy, but the market is always volatile and that’s never going to change. is what it is. live life, it’s short.

Rust should tell you something. It would bother me.

Congrats on the purchase! I ordered a coffee - that's about it!

Conditions look amazing. Hard to believe looking at things down/around here. I'm ready for summer now though!

Once you're out its almost impossible to get back in. Passion keeps you in Once you're out and find other things to spend your time and money on, hard to get that fire back. We're inching closer as hockey will wind down over the next year or two I suspect. Passion is still there and I will get back in -one more time and hopefully stay.

I have not come across a single person ordering a led for next year as of yet.

Facebook would suggest they quite good.

So was doing it before and after the new lid. Only so many places it can leak no? Fill it up and shake the crap out of it and see what you can find.

Wow! Looks way better than I would have thought.

that's the 96 XLT - my first ever snow checked sled with my own money I had the same skid plate, ski skins, grills done in purple and a light cover on it. Did an Erlandson clutch kit/helix and spring swap I was so proud of that sled and it was so fun to ride. Put 3700 miles on it in the 1st winter and that was it. Onto the Ultra 680 That one looks well cared for. Hard to find them in that shape it seems

Frig....... having a hard time making a decision here. Kid and I both have hockey tonight - both have play off games: We're both off rest of the weekend. Trails appear to have held up - but can't tell if there is enough snow on top to keep cool or not. Do I make the pilgrimage in the a.m. and go for it? If not - looking like it will all be over by end of next week. don't want to go up - and play the overheating game every 10 minutes either. hmmmmm Decisions decisions

That is about the dumbest thing I have read on here. Ridiculous Buy a 2000 XCR 800 and take the kids out on the lake!

Going to check out the new Polaris units today.: My son was scrolling briefly on his phone on the way home from the rink last night - he said they look "cool"
