  1. Sucks that they lost their entire run of 2023's.
  2. One revolution should be enough to kill 48 million birds in a single swing...... The bird loving greenies will have a field day with this giant bird killing machine...
  3. Elliott has been suffering a shoulder injury. More likely he will be playing his shoulder off if he starts this game....
  4. For a long time I thought nobody could work as hard as MC does to look so utterly and completely foolish everyday. Snowjob elevates that to a previously unkown level of fucking stupid. Post after post after post. Are all of these fucktards the same person?????
  5. I don't think he even knows where he is most days - same as the potus.
  6. I don't see how the Packers win the SB unless Hurts' injury is a factor in the playoffs and even then Buffalo, KC and SF are all playing better (more consistent) football. The Green Bay - Detoilet game should be a good one but if I had to bet my own money it would be on a Detoilet win tomorrow. Green Bay has been too inconsistent and Rodgers play has been abysmal at best, even in the annihilation of the Viqueens last week. Every team in the NFL knows how to beat them at this point. Blitz Cousins and shutdown Jefferson, game over.
  7. Just another reminder of the fucking complete idiocy in DC that continues on.
  8. Another booster that will arrive just in time for the next mutation..... But the shot is free of charge so it does have that going for it.
  9. Still do minor maintenance on the sleds - oil changes, replace wear items, etc. Mainly because by the time I load the sleds, take them to the dealer and make another trip back to get them it's not much more time or effort. The dealer I use now does not take appointments, it's drop it off and we will get to it when we can. When asked about how long it would take to have routine maintenance on three sleds he said they were backed up with the Poo recalls. It might be two or three weeks. What's nice is for more than a decade that is all I have had to do. Cannot remember the last time I had a warranty issue, let alone a major repair for a dealer.
  10. Cut in line, face the consequences. No better free entertainment than a Walmart.
  11. Drain that fucking swamp. Shitbird politicians on both sides.
  12. The modding/tinkering buyer is better served by the 998. The rest of the sledding world wants a sled that performs reliably. My dealer took a total of 2 spring orders for yamacats and more than 90 orders for 900's across all models (turbo and non).
  13. My 900T weighs the same as my 1200 Blizzard it replaced so no weight penalty there and it weighs significantly less than the winder. If you don't believe the 900T is as fast or faster than the 850's go look at some of the shootout numbers. But again, I could give two shits about max performance, modding and lake racing. As for benefits of 4S vs. 2S the list is a long one for me. Big one is no early forced trade-in due to miles. Any 2S takes a dive after 5K miles, don't care which brand it is. Wouldn't personally own a Poo 2S out of warranty or over 5K.
  14. There were two issues with this. Economics and packaging in the G4 chassis. They use the 900 Ace in everything from snow to dirt to asphalt to water. The engine is bullet proof reliable and performance hits the mark for 99% of the sledding world. In the G4 wide chassis it is far better balanced and the turbo comes in at the same weight as my 1200 Blizzard. I have two sleds and a pair of Sea Doo's with the 900. I have had zero issues with the engine in any of these, it runs smooth, quiet and is incredibly fuel efficient. Things that matter to most that have a shed full of toys to maintain.
  15. Great engine? Of course it is but there is more to a sled for me than HP. The XS chassis with that engine was good, not great. More HP is not fixing that just adding more complexity and shit that won't work when you need it to most. I have friends that just love to tinker with that shit and that is exactly what they end up doing. The season is just far too short for me to waste time doing that.
  16. Before I bought my 20' 900T I really wanted to like the Thunderwinder. My dealer back at that time has Yam, Doo and Poo and I test rode the Yamacat for a day. The engine had plenty of juice but that was its best quality. Take all of the shit parts that need to be replaced in the drivetrain to make it half way reliable and to it that the Yam was $2500 more than the Doo and it was an easy choice. That Spring Cat had the fire sale on Thundercat's but it was a total of $500 less and my go to Cat dealer for years had dropped the brand in 2018. Complete non-starter there.
  17. My 1200 Blizzard was an excellent sled. The 129 skid was great, it just needed better shocks. My 900T is better in so many ways. But I trail ride and have zero interest in dick measuring and sword fighting on kevlar lake.
  18. Bold statement. There is a massive black hole of knowledge around the experimental vax. Most sheep keep forgetting the fact that even after millions upon millions of doses it is still experimental. Once the fucking drug companies actually step up and accept liability for all of the negative shit that has happened and is still happening to people then maybe I will consider it. Until that time I will live whatever the fucking man made virus does, whether that is due to scientists in the lab cooking up more potent strains and then convincing sheep this was all due to nature and more bats fucking pangolins..... People need to wake up soon and realize they are being groomed into accepting extinction through stupidity.
  19. I thought all lake racers prefer mountain sleds.... That old poo seemed to start and run pretty good though for an old couch..... Speaking of ass draggers. There must have been a million of them on open trailers heading up to the yoop last week. Driving north on 51 was like attending a mobile yard sale.
  20. The Poo and Cat guys like to quote US market share only. Queue someone to chime in that sales really don't matter......
  21. Has to be because we are in the way pulling sleds around corners. Did not ride until last Friday and Saturday but the trails were surprisingly good in the Northwoods. Figured the temps and light rain on Thursday would have killed them. Saturday was excellent. Hopefully we get more than 4" of snow tomorrow.
  22. Agree. The 20' I bought new in 19' was $14,200. The same optioned sled in a 23' is now $20K. I will be keeping my sled for a long time to come unless prices settle back to some sort of reality.
  23. Man twenty plus minutes of saying the same thing over and over and over again. Sold two cars in my fleet this year because I knew this was coming. Both times from dealers writing me checks. It was nice for a change vs. haggling over a trade in price. In both instances they paid way above what the cars should have been worth. Bought my wife's Mazda back in July of 20' just before covid car prices hit. Dealer had more of them on the lot than at any other time I had been there for the past 3 years so I was able to buy a $49K stickered vehicle for $40K. I normally replace her car every three to four years. I just checked their inventory. They went from having zero cars 6-8 months ago so order at MSRP to now having 70 cars (of the model she drives) on the lot right now. Inventory is starting to build fast and they are currently discounting $2.5K off sticker at the moment. Won't need to buy for another 6-12 months so hopefully things will slowly keep getting back to normal.
