    I just can't take it anymore! With all of the snow that we have been getting I have finally lost my patience and I am going to buy a snowmobile. :cool: I have to do something that relieves this terrible cabin fever that my whole family has. As of right now, we are at -15* and I am locked up with a crap load of young kids!!! I have HAD ENOUGH! :banghead

    They say a boat is a hole in the water you pour money into. A snowmobile is the Canadian version of that boat.

    I had a 19' center console put over 500 hours on it in 3 seasons no problems. I had a inground pool THAT is a effin hole in the ground where I pour tons of gold.

    Well, its either spend it on the bike or give it to the wife, and once she gets the extra, she'll expect it all the time! Better to spend it before she finds it and wastes it on food, or heat, or medical bills, unimportant crap like that.

    I know of a guy that what ever he spends on his bike he has to fork over the same amount to his wife. Seems like there is just something wrong with that philosophy .

    RG, I have never put a lot of money into a snowmobile. I can fix them myself now that I have my own space. :)

    Have fun with it . . . and pics later, of course - maybe a video of you tearing through the snow. We will be getting a lot of it today and tomorrow with high winds and low temps.

    Take your global warming Algore (Egore's brother) and shove it where the sun don't shine!

    I will. It will be in about a month or so before I buy one. Need to take care of a couple other priorities first.
