  1. 100% - case in point, when I sold by last sled, dealer offered half of what I sold private for, he even suggested that route....sold in one day if I recall, but that was also with the silly covid clause in play. Seasons change, it all plays a role for sure.
  2. It really is a win win, if it’s a fair offer…..with less hassles and headaches, if that is worth it to you to have less hassles in life…. you save the decreased amount offered in taxes you save on new vehicle that you wouldn’t see on private sale. dealer makes that money as profit when they sell based on market value that keeps the wheel greased. rinse and repeat….
  3. 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.
  4. 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.

    Very nice. Reminds me of taking my kids when they were three, surprising how well they do at that age. Under three is pretty impressive though! I could not last on the bunny hills all day, so I asked the staff if I could take them up the lifts to bigger hills, susprised that I could, so off we went and did not have return to bunny hill until they were 6 and had to earn their stripe to move on.

    Tire rotation is key to any tire, especially a tire that has an aggressive or semi-aggressive tread pattern. On my second set of Duratrac tires, first set had 100k. I’ve had good luck with them so far.
  7. Same here, never been an issue with mine - metal solid wheels/casters, all works, etc.....

    Studs is what is needed. just drive in QC in a bad weather day and see those crazy buggers fly by you or pass on roads that are ice…lol Then pass the ones flipped over or in the ditch a few km up the road that assume don’t have studs.

    Great day for a round of golf!
  11. Lots of life left in the 800 then. perhaps your sons next ride and you get back on a POO, when we get winters again and time permits.
  12. Or a collectors item !!
  13. What sort of miles do you have on that retro?
  14. Kudos to you, that’s great to be able to say that, I personally won’t spend much time or effort searching for deals, I’ll look of course when I’m ready to buy, then make a decision and pull trigger….i don’t think I have the patience to look and hold out for something I’m ready to buy.
  15. Buy for the now enjoyment, not the future......its a toy to have fun, not an investment. Assume loses, if you cannot stomach that, move on.
