Where you started and what you've got now....

First sled....purchased brand new in 1968.



Current sled. At least 30 of them in between. Been at this a while. Probably couldn't list them if I tried.

Started out with a 1979 skidoo citation 300 that I bought with my brother. That was a fun machine. Next I went to a 1981 Arctic Cat Panther 440. I could get to 100km/h on hard pack. After a few years of education I bought a 1999 Arctic Cat Powder Special 700 limited. Now I have 2008 M1000.

Wow, i don't know how some of you guys can list your sleds over the years and keep the order straight. Must of made a list as the years went by, thats awesome.
For me i don't remember all the sleds and years, too many to even know, though i can tell you my first couple because they stand out in my mind. Back in 1976 a new 340 Skiroule and in 1978 I think an Acrtic Cat Panther with leopard seat LOL and a new 78 Rupp Nytro....LOL...I think that correct.
In the 80's I rode mostly Yamaha's, starting with the 81 SS and 84 Phaser, went through numerous Yami's till the mid 90's where I jumped ship to Arctic Cat and rode them till I was offered a job with BRP in late 1999.
For the next 10 years rode Ski-Doo mostly, now I am back on Yamaha since 2010.
ALL my sleds were 2 stroke till 2010 and with the exception of a couple of triples I owned(mountainmax) I blew most all of them up, even one of my TCat 1000. Some more then once LOL.
Other then my very early day's so before 1980, all my sleds were generally modified, including my present one and I plan on continuing doing builds with my future iron. All my riding has been in BC mountains.
Oh one thing I forgot to mention, never owned a Polaris, maybe one day.

Guess I should put the wife's and daughters sleds in here too.

2003 600 summit bulletproof sled, lent it to a buddy and he smashed a rock with it so he ended up buying it from me and we got it back together, its still going strong
2008 Summit X 154" Not sure who hated this sled more, me or her.
2013 RMK 800 155" did a few things to it to make it hers, she loved it until she rode my axys
2016 SKS 800 put a 36" front end on it so far and got a few other thing in mind for it

Pretty bad she's owned more sleds than I have. Hard on equipment I guess.

Daughters just getting started but has had 2 already
2013 indy 120
2019 Yamaha 200 SnoScoot

Adding it all up I'm over $58,000 spent on iron not including ANYTHING else other than the purchase price. That looks pretty minor compared to some of these lists on here...
