Who is excited for snow season? Not us! We're depressed due to lack of snow.

Skidoo made the elite sxs snowmobile model in the 70s- early 80s then tried again in the early 2000s they were wider and a lot heavier than conventional snowmobiles. Never had any desire to own one. ATVs rut up snowmobile trails and aren't the safest going at reasonable speeds on a winter trail imo.

Our machines PSI is far lower than any sleds have. But it is slower....

yeah for sure, I was being funny … bunch of duds in Quebec took one of yearly models and put a 440 in it you should see that thing go it was pretty cool … i tried to find the video but it’s not on youtube only facebook

To be honest, we only use our machine for work for 95% of the time and do not utilize sled trails. The OP I responded to, I can not comment on and did not include state trail use.

ho sorry I thought by saying snowmobile trails that’s what it was imply.

Just got a new, well made adapter for the Challenger to hook up to my Arctic plow

The POS I bought before this one wasn’t worth a crap. I swear the Chinese made stuff just isn’t worth buying!

Around here if they predict any kind of snow event there is a run at the grocery stores. We have lived outside of town now for 26 years and the absolute worst storm was about 20 inches. The longest you couldn’t to town was maybe 2 days, probably less.

It’s been that way forever in Minnesota, people think we will be stranded at home and starve to death so the stores are busy if a storm is predicted. I’ve never been stranded at home because of snow but I’m only 62 so there is still some time

First forecast for snow from the weather service, so I put the snow tires on my truck and car early this morning!!!
After completing the tire change they change the forecast on me, now no snow in the forecast for a week.


But I'm ready.

I've only been snowed in once in my life... blizzard of '78. It was impressive.

last year at Christmas we had a 3 day long blizzard not stranded by any means but we had 1” per hours precipitation and 2.5 foot over 3 days.

We definitely don’t see anything like Boston in 2013 or 2003 that’s crazy.

We were snowed in for 3 days back in 2016 with 32" of snow from a Friday evening through Sunday morning. Plows made one run early on Friday, and cleared the bulk of the snow on Tuesday.

I plow 15 or so neighbors on contract, and some of them just couldn't understand that even if their driveway was cleared, they weren't going anywhere. I got about 1/2 done on Sunday, and the rest after the County frontend loader came through. I put 24 hours of seat time on my tractor and blower for that storm. It was miserable, then I bought a cabbed tractor!
