What part of Ont are you in? Sleds look sweet!

 

Heading up in the morning for the guys trip. We will be in the Bass Lake/ Carpenter Lake area.

 

I think there will be close to 20 of us for the first half, then considerably less for the second half for those of us only riding a 1/2 week. There will be a handful staying the whole week.

 

I was glad to hear that the Soo area didn't see much of the warm spell last week. Hoping for another trip to St. Joseph Island! Stinks there isn't gas in Searchmont this year.

 

If I get some wifi I will try to post a pic or two!

sold mine this year :(

Bummer!

 

Some sweet sleds!!!

 

It's a bummer our season is pretty much over, but was a good year! Rode 1200 mi, of which about 950 mi were on the new sled.

 

The F8 EXT definitely is a better ride than my '98 ZL 500. Rode 200 mi in one day for the first time this past w/e on a turnaround trip, and was barely tired when we got back! Drove up to St Ignace, Mi Sat morning, rode up to Newberry via Trout Lake, over to Curtis, then through Engadine on our way back to Ignace! Stayed the night, and drove home! And I am happy with the gas mileage compared to the ZL as well! I have seen 13-15mpg, not to shabby!!!

 

One last pic for the season! Taken up in Cadillac, Mi.

Do have a few mods and accessories planned for the off season. Nothing major though. Studs, carbides and wider skis possibly for both sleds, windshield bags, 2 up seat for my sled, mount my jerry can, maybe a tunnel bag, etc.

Here is my "2003" it was a cluster of a mess. After I got it. And put a motor in it. I found out my chassis was junk. So I found an 07 rev tunnel. Got a 440x front end, and most 440 braces and other ones from dootalk. Got an 05 x rear suspension. And put all my 03 stuff into the chassis. So I basically have an 07 x with 03 electronics. She runs awesome. Sucks gas worse then a 454 big block thou.

      on-wheel cellphone control: 2026 1500 WT (2.7L 4WD std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.

      "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
