I snowchecked from Mr.R's. Got a phone call during the summer from my salesman telling me new way bought them out. He told me all deals stay the same. Picked up my sled last week and all was good on that end.

In my signature I have a thank you to Mr.R's and the boys and as far as ownership, I only went back as far as Ken but that business was around for a long time for a good reason. It is a turning of the page.......Cory and Will are moved into their new roles and will look after us as best they can.

It will be an interesting winter!

This is to bad but at least the area will have a doo dealer and guys won't have to go to Calgary to get bent over.
I purchased from Ken in Milo and thought he was the coolest dealer ever with very personalized and honest service.
Ryan gave me same in Lethbridge but I am not sure I will make the haul down there anymore. Haven't a clue who owns New Way or what they will be like so if I am finding a new dealer might as well go to Vernon I guess.

This is true guys. Deal was done in August. Will, Corey and Chantelle have moved over with the purchase. New Way is the new owners and have a very nice store. Call 403-394-9939 if you have any questions.

some what sad ryan and tanner never took it more serious, it could of turned out to be something much bigger in my thoughts, but that's how things go... good job ken the years you had it, you had made a great name for it

I tried to get ryan interested in a store in the hat, even found some ground and buildings, but dealing with brp crap turned us off, they seam to be very loyal to existing dealers, even if they are a 100km away.... that give two sh!ts for the customers

LOL, I went on a VIP ride at Frisby. BRP rep asked me what the hell I was doing buying sleds in Lethbridge when I have a Calgary address!! Told him this is Canada and I can buy whatever I want wherever I want, even a skidoo.

TabarnaK!!!! I'm not sure where you're from Calgary, Vernon, Lethbridge, or west of Revy. But if you don't mind driving, try Motor tech in Golden, you might like those guys, they have really good customer service.

Skidoo really doesnt get it. I dont get why they are pushing the small dealerships that actually have a passion for the sport and give outstanding service out of business.

Hey guys! Was talking to the new owners, Tyler and Rob Duncan this morning and they are having an open house and FREE avalanche seminar next Friday evening Oct 11th. Food and refreshments, dealership tours and the guys would really like to meet anyone interested in coming down. Should be a good time!:snowmobilers_wave:
