Great Sled!!
By Robert Palanza(Owner), Jul. 4, 2020
Bought new at the end of 2007. Excellent sled. Usually get anywhere from 16-21 MPG depending on where and how we're riding. Adjustable ride for the conditions and comfortable. My only complaint is the weight. Don't get stuck when riding alone. Read Full Review
