hi all i was out riding this morning when we stoped for a brake when my phone rang.
so i say hellow and it my daughter and she saying you won you won.
so i say what did i win and she said that i won a snowmobile.
so i called my lockl dealer and ask and they said i won an 2005 m7 arctic cat sled.
well i still cant beleave it.so i go to see it and may see if he will trade it for a quad.
anyways i say what will you give me on a trade .
get this.
this is in canadian dollers.
$5000 he says.
it sells for $11995
i said service it and get it ready ill pick it up on monday.
you know i thought i would trade it on a dvx 400 for my son or maybe a 400 ex because he sells both honda and arctic cat.
i said i would take 10,000 for it and he said no. so im going to try and trade it at another cat dealer about 200 miles for here.
im sure i wont have any trouble selling it.
someone will take it for that price.
there saveing 2000 plus taxes on it.
and its brand new.
another thought is to keep it for myself and then ill have a sled and a quad.
that would make me happy but i dont think my son would be to happy seeing as i said i was going to trade it on a quad for him and my daughter.

 

damn thats sweet , yeah the dealer shoudl take it in on trade for the DVX most definitaly , if they dont....then their stuiped

 

hey it is the dealers loss they can make a lil money and you can get what you want for basically nothing but if i was you i would remember this next time i try to do business there but congradulations and dang 5000? if i was lookin for a sled like that i would give you 10,000 for it right away

 

well tomorow im calling trhe other cat dealer and see if he will take it on a trade for a quad.
and if not i had another thought my friend put into my head last night was sell it and put the money into my elcamino.
now that im seirously thinking about.
the thought of cruiseing with my elcamino this summer is a sweet thought.
just think 1970 SS 454 4spd 410 possi elcamino.
sweet.

 

i sure wish i was that lucky..looking at your pics id say keep it,not interested in snowmobiling?

 

i dont know.
i had a sled once and i used it maybe 6 times a winter.
and i had it for 3 years.
im thnking if i get another quad my kids or my wife can come out riding with me.
and if i get a sport quad i can have a choice of quads to play on.
cus when my son or daughter come out they will want the sport quad.
they say my rubicon is boring.
but ill see what happens tomorow when i go to pick it up.
i cant wait.
if he dont want to trade for a quad ill take it out for a blast a seewhat happens maybe ill like it and keep it for myself and not get anything for the kids.
im sure they will like this also.
only just in the winter.
and i still got my rubicon.
i think im talking myself into keeping it.
oh no.

 

Ever think about giving eBay a try? I'll bet you can sell it there for a good deal more than that funky dealer offered you, especially when you can sell it as damned near brandy new.

 

well i tryed it out today and that thing is insaine.
my kids are thinking if i keep it untill next year and then sell it they might get to ride it a bit befor winter is over.
so i dont know what im going to do.
if someone comes up with cash ill sell it but untill next fall i dont think im going to push trying to sell it.
then when snowmobile season starts up again im sure ill get a good deal on a trade for a quad.

 

hi everyone.
get this my local dealer just called me and offerd me a strait across trade for a 2004 kawasaki 700 prerie
with 28" mud zillas 2500lb warn winch hand guards and a lift kit.
and it only got 200 miles on it.
he said the owner of the buisness has it and wants to trade it for the sled.
what do u think is it worth it.

 

well i did it.
i traded it on the 2004 kawasaki 700 prarie.
and man is this thing fast.
and its in great shape also.
its only 4 months old and it still has over 2 1/2 years warrenty on it so that made it easyer to do the trade.
because i dont have to worry about it braking down and haveing to pay to fix it.
i think i did ok.
and my son and daughter are happy with it also.
so now i have a choice of quads to ride when i go out by myself.
or someone else to ride with when i go out riding with my buddys.
and its one more thing i get to do with my kids now.
eather way i look at it its win win for me.
