Back to the question of which direction to take first. I would go through the US first. If there's any hiccups crossing the border you will know right away. If you then acquire anything while out west, there's no hassle of then keeping all your receipts as proof of having bought or received items in Canada, crossing into the US and then coming back into Canada. Catch my drift. Your choice, I had some 'splainin to do once, but I had all my receipts as proof. I did the trip from Manitoba back and forth a number of times. I found the leg from SSt Marie to Fargo was okay, west of there, a flatlanders dream. Tie up the steering wheel, lay a brick on the gas pedal and you can pretty much nap all the way. Coffee sucks, doesn't matter which gas/truck stop you hit.

There's a new one every day, users beware. Best thing when that happens, hang up and then you call your credit card provider and ask if there's anything wrong with your card.

I think you pretty much wacked the nail on the head.

This will probably amount to the equivalent of a nuclear mouse fart.

Garmin is pretty much at the top of the list. If you can make the trip to Radioworld in Vaughn or Durham Radio in Whitby, both are pretty knowledgeable and will steer you right.

Cheap heating, it could be worse.

Hey what's that white stuff.. Nice set up on the machine.

You mean I should get out the ball peen hammer and break it in..

Says -2 on TWM and 30km/h winds, might make some flying ice cubes. http://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/weather/ontario/kawartha-lakes

That ATV is a factory single seat configuration, adding a 2 up seat doesn't make it legal for roadside use. I have not had any getting stuck problems with my Otter sled behind the ATV.

And they still flop around, besides, it's wasted space when you can put a box there to put a lot of stuff in to keep dry.

I have a box on the back rack of the ATV, the auger sits on top held down by one ratchet strap. It does not move at all. The box is about 40" long, 12" high and 12" wide. Remember whatever size box you make to leave enough room to be able to remove the seat. I can still sit 2 people on the ATV for short runs.

It's always a sad moment when a pet passes on.

No motorized use after 1 Dec except snowmobile, other times ATV and dirt bike are allowed but you must buy a pass. I don't think trucks are allowed there at all anymore. http://www.ganaraskaforestcentre.ca/Motorized_use_FAQs_brochure.pdf

How about a cargo rack that slides into the trailer hitch or have something fabricated like it to stand the sled upright. http://www.cabelas.ca/product/46609/cabelas-trailgear-2-folding-cargo-carrier

Toyotas are not the most fuel efficient by any stretch, reliability on the other hand is good.

Well dang, there you go all fixed shiny and new. Enjoy the Yamaha, it's a fine ride.

X2, only ever tried it when it was free. I'll leave home 10 minutes early or use the back roads.

A bunch of old pharts making divots again today, do it while you can.

Here's your answer Emil, read down and they do give some prices. http://www.plasticweldingrepairs.ca/

You only need beer to mask the unpretty ones. Then when the lights come on, oh what did I get myself into.

The closest thing to sitting in front of the stage at a peeler joint.

Eye candy

I know where that spot is. Remove the front rack, clean up the underside and crack. Put a golf tee or wood dowel in where the hole goes. Mix up enough JB to fill the cracked area. Then get the biggest stainless fender washer, (Home Depot) about 1 1/2 inch diameter. You will have to get a longer bolt, it's metric.
