I dont care, but is that even legal?? I see alot of sketchy setups these days, with the sleds being so long and the track sticking 3feet off the back of truck decks:confused: but thats just rediculas.....I wouldn't ride my sled like that, but hey what ever its your problem if something goes south not mine...

And maybe its just me but using an "Avalnche" for a sled tow rig just seems like bad juju

my 155 has been in a ridgeline.............made good use of the factory tie down loops but the tail gate was down. the sled is 11 feet long and the box on them is 5'5" or so but add the 24" tail gate and it was ok, looked like it was going to fall out but it was ok

Re: And they say an Avalanche wasn't built to haul a mountain sled

Hell yeah brother it was all good. Can't wait for the next trip. And Waka's Nytro is the shortest sled , I just can't see us lifting it into the back of the Avalanche. I call it gettin the "Nytro Stiffness"Been there a few times and not goin back.lol
