When did I resort to calling you names.... seems I didn't did I. You have however referred to us all repeatedly as being ignorant. Now which sled was it that now has the $20K price tag again.

You've insinuating that I'm a bigot, that is shaming and name calling in my books yet I've done nothing of the sort. saying you're ignorant because you are ignoring facts isn't name calling, its stating the obvious.

I'd expect to be in the minority here.”…………in other words he expected most of us to be dumb ignorant red necks I guess ………..and then goes on to continually call us ignorant and unable to research like he does in essence. Didn't miss that at all. Caught it right away. Don't forget your chewin' tabaccy as you head off to the coal mine. So how many will be buying that $20K sled... not me. I will always buy what I like and what fits my needs. I don't need the $20K sled but an upper middle range will do me nicely. right there ^ or did you forget, it was less than 1/2 an hour ago! 5 minutes ago, 02Sled said: Whoa... where did I say you're a bigot... you're way off base.

02Sled Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Interpret what you will however you want. All I said was that I caught your implied comment on the demographics of sledders. Now back on topic....who here has the most expensive snowmobile.... Here is an article on the cost of the new sleds and sticker shock http://www.amsnow.com/news/2017/02/the-price-is-right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panther340 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 regarding the cost of snowmachines..........now I may be a dumb ignorant country bumpkin according to Canadoo , but a few years back I figured out all on my own how to get on the internet and that site called Kijji and found a used snowmachine for $1500 . I was able to figure out how to drive to his house all on my own even in my redneck truck and although it was a gas powered engine and I would of preferred electric to please the enviro Nazis , I had to settle for the two stroke and most winters it has done me fine, although I wish it had reverse. Now I am planning on buying another machine in next few years (max spend maybe $6000) and I will do that because I am confident that the Liberal cap and trade system will immediately stop the globe from heating up and there will for sure be snow on my farm and maple syrup woodlot for many winters to come . .............. sarcasm off now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02Sled Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Panther... as we age we increasingly appreciate things like the reverse you mentioned. Another one is electric start. One of the guys I ride with relented and this past season got a sled with electric start and reverse. He concluded he was getting just too damned old to be pulling on it when it was reluctant to start or having to wrestle the sled to turn around on a narrow trail.

I would never get a sled without either of those even though I pull start the sleds half the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticCrusher Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Speaking of 20K for a sled. Would say that is getting prohibitive for a machine used only a couple of months a season at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catinental couch Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 When I was half my age, I wouldn't own a sled with electric start and reverse. I would have as little on them as possible to cut down weight and make them faster. Also no or very little windshield. Now I wouldn't be without them. The windshield on my sled is about the size of a living room window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
