  1. GREAT NOSTALGIC shot .... nice looking 👌 vintage sled. Killer garage
  2. Thats one big 50 or 60 footer.... guessing from the silouette.. Surprised, they didn't break the horse + get out of town. Springs coming, relaunch it in the lake + have the biggest baddest party 🥳 barge . . .
  3. Snow bikes have came and gone for twenty five years... Limited niche market.. Price for small production runs keeps them expensive. Physically, it would be hard on the body.. Looks fun in the twisted.. . .
  4. This is NO TAX BREAK! Just less tax withholding. Typical political 🙄 bunk
  5. FORD , doesn't take that stance... Lots of Ford / Harley Davidson pick up editions on the road... Don't know anything about working on them.... But, it was love at first sight. Fit, finish, and trim were first class. 👌 EXCELLENT handling + speed. Try one, or try keeping up with one. Pro's. - GREAT car. super accommodating factory 🏭 Porsche wanted my business.. Toyota was condescending + curt to the customer! ( 55 - 85k customer should expect better!) Con's - . expensive service Extra up charge for garish Yellow paint 🎨 scheme
  6. Would it 🤔 make it easier. If the next Porsche Macan came into the shop, sporting shocking Ski Doo yellow paint + big bold black Ski Doo decals down the sides?
  7. The crew jumps ship, So, another crew can come on board to fight the fire. There's something wrong with this picture ... a crew NOT trained to handle emergencies Not, the old US Navy. and certainly not Putins Navy. One more reason, to see empty showrooms.
  8. That is one FUGLY looking hood... And, to think 🤔 I thought the foreign sales brochure was a photo shop gag. What weren't they thinking when they puked up that look. No. 2023 for me.
  9. Almost nothing until some horrific death involving a political family member happens. Until reckless driving is treated similarly to highway statutes + enforced, negligent attitudes will exist. Maybe some remember the 30 pack racks on the back of a sled, and drinking was a common sight.
  10. . Factory installed and legally mandated as a safety item , like head lights, tail lights....would add a comfort level.. Better yet!! 360 degree Anti Collision Avoidance Radar as modern aviation uses. Operators would receive real time updates of approaching sleds. This could be approaching, and or anti collision avoidance.
  11. Yes, lights are interesting ... However, as I ride with mitts, my sled has Whelen Strobe lights flashing during day light hours..... hoping reflections will be seen by negligent riders cutting corners, riding left of center. As, I'm often alone I try to be visible. Very limited hand signals for ⚠️ warnings etc 🤔 for contingent disaster avoidance may 😳 warrant risks... Two hands ✋ makes for safer control of any sled.
  12. This is a 100% WIN / WIN proposal on so many facets . . . Wish it was just simple as Business is Business . . . Economies of Scale Prevail, to everyone's advantage This is a prudent strategic business move for Arctic Cat in the long term. Post Covid 19, they will ramp up production runs of 120's and 200's using spare factory time. Building lots of little sleds, will ultimately improve AC's P + L statement. Competitive manufacturing costs will benefits BRP's bottom line and keep their pricing competitive Remember we live in a global economy !!! Well, Jobs stayed in North America! Not, whored out to China! If you missed the message, while eating paint chips & beer, Arctic Cat, Polaris, Ski Doo and Yamaha toys are competing against Chinese made Products. This may be the first like MTD manufacturing plants....now joint ventures making toys.....
  13. Yes, Monday , Ski Doo unveils their 2023 line up.... Curious, when we can see / demo them? Dooooooo hope they finish up the 2022 models . . .
  14. ICG

    Woodford

    January thaw + rain on the shoreline must have hurt the mountains too. .
  15. Does anyone 🤔 remember the farmers picketing in Paris years back.... Clogged the city + outskirts with tractors and farm equipment. What a sight Paris and Manure spreaders.... Bring it on
  16. True facts or the realities of living with an electric car are clouded by the media + industry from my car search . . . Was quite impressed with Audi's etron GT R 4 door car! The realities of distance, cold, AC, heating are swag estimates. Battery life expectancies + replacement costs, no solid answers. Technology under hood ? SCARES me, to think about servicing these modern first generation electrics. HYBRIDS ??? just as 😨 scary to keep . friends I8 was an electric challenge ( read night mare they couldn't fix) under warranty.
  17. Trespassers are a nuisance everywhere ... enforcement is almost none existent! We have too many quads riding through the woods roads onto farm property.... Police + Fish +Game have been of no real help. . . . Surprise surprise 😮 Comments are that all Yamahas are white and blue. Game Cameras have been a bust trying to film fast moving machine. Most effective measures are large berms made with dozer, closing roads. 2. Denying access to ALL legal hunters, trespassers, etc. As a land owner, I don't miss the FREE users on our property + waited too long before closing all access.
  18. 800renegaderider was off to a decent start . . . But, spend a little more and get a self contained Re - Breather System w/ liquid oxygen tanks, just like a Haz Mat crew has with a full NBC suit. That and decontamination WILL keep you 99.9% safe. Spend a little, live a little. . .
  19. Wasn't this tried 🤔 in Germany from 1936 - 1945, under National Socialism?
  20. Wow . . . What a gifted thought, my Macan, should go slower, because it's cold outside. Montana doesn't have that Thought! The Autobahn is GREAT with NO speed limit.
  21. Not the most practical, or safest airframe to circumnavigate the world in. . .
  22. Real job site safety cans are steel with spring loaded caps + flame arrestors built into the can. Sparks can be generated from static electricity from a plastic surface. Spills are safer on the ground than in a car trunk or splashing on you from a tailgate.
  23. $ 6.00 a quart SAE 30 full synthetic.. No problems, cheapest I can find.
