    any one have a f150 ecoboost?

    I was sledding in Fernie this weekend. Nothing like cruising down the highway, pulling a 27 foot enclosed, at 1600-1700 rpm, with a 3.5L V6. On the bigger hills it shifted down to 5th at 2100 rpm. On one steep hill it shifted down to 4th at 3000 rpm. Always held to 100 km/h. I could have...

    any one have a f150 ecoboost?

    I have a 2011 Eco with the max tow (11,200 lbs tow capacity). I occasionally tow a 27 f enclosed sled trailer (7,000 lbs gvwr) and it does it very well. Most of the time I'm using my truck to commute. The eco engine is extremely capable to pull almost any load, but it is still in a half ton and...

    Whats the deal with helmet cams?

    I take video for the same reason people take pictures, to preserve memories. Like my daughter first sled ride. That stuff is priceless. I agree that editing is the key. You can easily end up with hours of boring stuff.

    I pulled my my Legend 7 x 27 up to Swan Hills this weekend. Even with the high winds it pulled great. Love the trailer. Oh and Ron is a great guy too.

    how far we have come ! Old School and a Retro

    Definitely fun driving the old iron once in a while, but they do feel like your driving a Shiners car.

    It's going to be a great season!

    Yeah, who said you can't park sleds side by side in a 7 wide trailer.:p I'm staring to teach her Rasmussen's "wrong foot forward" technique.:d

    It's going to be a great season!

    What a horrible year for snow around Edmonton. Took my daughter on our first ride together today and we had to go to Swan Hills to do it. Super windy today but at least we got out... finally. She got her first stuck. :biggrin1:

    Swan Hills 2011/2012 Season

    Took my daughter up to Swan Hills for her first ride today. Super windy. We didn't cover a lot of miles but my daughter managed to find enough snow to get a 120 stuck.:d

    who has good whitecourt updates

    Any updates for the the area around Eagle River staging area. Since there isn't any snow around Edmonton I want to take my daughter out on her 120 the week after Christmas. Not looking for epic snow, just need enough for my daughter to have fun, and enough not to destroy my sled. Is it worth...

    Long track kids sled. PICS

    This place does it. News and Information From Carroltech - rubber track repair It gets quite pricy after buying a second track and getting them to do the splice (I think over $1000). And then add deep lugs.
