    Is man made climate change real?

    Is the earths climate warming? Yes it is. From 2 million years ago to about 12000 years ago this ball of dirt was covered with hundreds of feet of ICE! There has basically been a constant warming since then. Has man contributed to it? Yes he has. The extent of his contribution is...

    Would you buy a used sled online?...

    I just sold my 13 XM on Kijiji. The guy drove to Edmonton from Winnipeg. I sent him lots of pics and video so he knew what he was getting. The fact that I priced it for a quick sale may have been his motivation. Ultimately all he had was my word so like I said earlier, I wouldn't have been in...

    Would you buy a used sled online?...

    Nope! Only if it's from someone I know. I would agree to a small deposit to hold it but I would never pay without some guarantee that the deal is legit.

    Is this becoming to expensive to do?

    I agree with Foxstar45. I think it's relatively the same cost as it's always been. For me it's the one thing that I am truely passionate about and I do it for me. Its kind of like beer, no matter how expensive it gets, they will NEVER charge what it's worth!:beer:

    I just picked up a 2016 174 T3 SP for $13707.07 OTD w/3 yrs warranty. I sold my 2013 X 163 with 3" track and 4390 very gently ridden Km's for $6200. I probably should have read this thread first��

    Lets start a discussion. How do we fix sledding?

    Curtis, This is embarrassing and I acknowledge there is absolutely no excuse for it but... I have been sledding in your neck of the woods for a long time. My first trip was in 1998, but I have not taken an avy course. When you ask "how do we fix sledding" the only thing I can say is one rider...

    Video of being Caught in Avalanche - Allen Creek January 23, 2016

    Lots of armchair quarterbacks telling you what you did wrong but like Bogger said, we ALL make these mistakes from time to time no matter how skilled/trained/experienced we are. you did end up very close to the surface so perhaps the bag helped save your life even only half deployed. The great...

    skidoo 2016

    Well it looks like Skidoo feels they are king of the mountain segment. No upgrades to speak of, or at least nothing that I read. (I don't consider color schemes or decal kits upgrades) Having said that, I will still order a 174 because it makes my 13 163 3" feel like a mini Z in comparison...

    Can you check if it's stolen when buying on kijiji?

    You can check for liens online, providing they give you an accurate VIN. I believe it cost me $15 but that was a few years ago. You should make sure that the search company you use is checking Canada and not just one province.

    Polaris generators, who's got em and would you recommend them?

    Thanks for the replies. I had the Honda 3000 for 12 years with no issues whatsoever but got rid of it when I bought my 5th wheel (has built in Onan 5500). Then I bought a Honda 2000 for the sled trailer but figured it was overkill for basically charging the batteries so I gave it to my dad for...
