Workin' Down @ The Lake

[Sinker 172]

Nice. You still running the same venture? How many miles on it now? I just got a VK Pro. What a beast compared to the venture. Still have my venture too, no issues with it whatsoever. around 12K on it now. Winter is a great time to haul material. Get er done!

Only just North of 5000 kms on it Sinker.

Been a hard 5K though as I've moved probably more than 50 tonnes of materials with it.

Probably why I wore out the clutch on it already. I'm looking at getting a SxS with tracks this year that will be fun and great for hauling with 1000# payload in the bed and 2000-2500# tow rating. Sure will make life easier when I get all my soral power materials. Those batteries are heavy.

Sweet. The VK has a much heavier clutch than the Venture, and the low gear is nothing but torque.

We have  SXS at work with tracks, and you're right, it will haul anything, anywhere.  Make sure you get power steering, they are hard to turn without, and also close in the cab, ours is a very, very cold ride compared to a sled. I only use it if I have to, usually to rescue one of our trail grooming snowmobiles. Its a beast though, and gets the job done every time.
