I am moving to Kelowna area so will be riding around there, not if that matters but figure there may be more steep and deep days compared to the Coquihalla and 10-k areas which I usually ride. I think it is down to a T3 15-16 in 163-174 or a 16 axys in 163 unless I can get a new one on holdover.

Your moving to Kelowna and riding there. I've lived here and been riding here for years. Personally if that's your plan i wouldn't bother with any sled with a track over 155.
Kelowna's club riding area and most popular riding area is Greystokes and it doesn't hold a candle to the Coquihalla summit and 10K. It's a good riding area's but sleds like T3's and 163, 174 are all over kill and the fun factor will be gone. The only place guys brag about hill climbs is the back side of Big White. There is virtually no real hills to climb otherwise, ok wrong 2 hill's one small hill and one a little bigger. It is a fantastic tree riding area with lots of meadows. Avy chances are bare minimal. Its a great family riding area.
Also to add to that the big snow is short lived, season is long but mostly on set snow with marginal powder.
On any make running around a 155 would be my #1 choice for Kelowna area...JMO

My self i rarely ride that area, not my style.

His girlfriend probably got a hold of his phone and jumped on facebook and posted his sled for sale so she can have him all to her self....No guy would sell a newish sled for that much haha unless he hit his head really hard.

Haha, I have seen this happen before in a devorice garage sale, she had no idea what snap on was worth.

The reply on facebaook said first one to show up with cash gets the sled.............

To Kelowna, Enderby and Sicamous are IMO much nicer places to ride. To Coquihalla and 10K, it depends on your style, Coquihalla and 10k are far more aggressive riding and much steeper with alot more snow. I personally like the area but wife doesn't, she uncomfortable there and prefers Sicamous to Revy areas.
The only thing i really dislike about Coquihalla and 10k is the unpredictable weather comes in very fast.

Go with a 16 T3 174. Bullet proof.

Bullet proof is the 600 summit sport, goes better than some might think.
