after days like i had today i love my old beater of a sled i paid 1700 bones for it 10 years ago, when i roll it off the trailer unloading it or smoke a tree i really i just laugh it off, i couldnt do that if i paid 14 g for one. sometimes i think all the fancy new stuff is just overkill i want a new sled just need something simpler.
