Default Re: Where to buy?

Sorry to have to tell you but for quality equipment you will be looking at the $5,000 or higher range. Your only option is to build it yourself and you will still have to invest a good amount of money.

No offence taken Wyatt but look at it this way some spend over $10k for a snowmobile or $20K for a motorcycle or throw money at a hopped up diesel truck they use for a grocery getter. It is all in what hobby you want to spend you money on.

One of the guys I work with and his son went out and bought two new snowmobiles at $15K a piece and we have had no snow this year. Now they have to spend more money to drag them up to Michigan just to get to use them. Now that is a lot of money to spend just to get to ride them for a weekend.

I completely get what you are saying but at my age (16) it is just a steep mountain to climb while I noticed a good population of the site is of the age where the hobby is easy to maintain and pay for.


@MsMaddie do you have any brand names of vehicles to give me an idea of what to search, I searched ebay and such and get no results from my searches


Thanks
