440s ran good! I still have my 480 Phazer...basically a better version of the Enticers (IMO) For those not familiar, this is where "send it" came from...this dude is nuts! https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...r4kDegQIMRAA&usg=AOvVaw0zSbybR2Kl26QuWzDuSOMq
I still got old beater sleds.. 95 skidoo s 380 perfect for kids and 91 formula plus 523 solid frame hauled a lot of sap with the beast
Snowblowers, we have an ariens 24" compact model I bought new a few years ago. Probably 10 years ago?? It works great. I would buy no other brand as they really know how to make them. Sleds/ snowmobiles I've had every brand. Some good ones from every maker, but Arctic cat is the last one I would recommend, there's only a couple good ones of that brand, and even then they always needed bearings and other parts before the other brands. Sadly there's no more Yamaha snowmobiles being made. Last year was the last. We sold all of our sleds as of 2 years ago. We had usually 4 at a time. Maybe if winters get more reliable due snow I'll get another one or 2. Snowmobiling is literally some of the most fun you can have outdoors, especially with the trail system we have in northern Wisconsin.
24" Ariens snowblower I've had for a long time. Had another Ariens before that. Never even saw a snowblower growing up in Cincinnati. The garbage trucks would have little blades mounted under them to clear the roads. Never really saw much in the way of plows either. Now in the PRM (peoples republic of massachusetts) it's another story. I live on a street with 11 houses. 6 houses the owners have snow blowers and one guy has a plow. We help each other out of the worst storms. Been pretty mild the last few years though. I can't imagine not having a snow blower.
Toro 9 hp 2 stage I use it a lot I have the driveway and then a path out back from the deck to the stacks
28” Ariens with the made in China engine. Works great I was concerned about the made in China engine but have had zero probs in 6 years of use.
