I hope you won't think less of me. I've been without a truck for several years now. I've been able to get up into the hills to go Snowmobiling only by bumming rides from family and friends. This has left me more than a little bitter. The area we usually ride is pretty busy on weekends and the parking area is full of some of the most burly of trucks. Being truck-less has it's benefits however. I've been doing a lot of research for the last year or so. When I am able to buy the truck of my choice I'll be one of the most informed consumers on the market. As I've done my research I've come across people who are very brand loyal.
It seems most of my Snowmobiling friends have very strong opinions why their particular brand is better than the others. Here, I would like to give a brief synopsis of what I've heard, and I would like your opinions as well.
Anyone who knows me can attest to the fact that I'm not the most frugal minded individual. I like nice new shiny modes of transport as much as the next guy. This has caused my wife no small amount of grief. Everytime, it seems, she needs a new piece of furniture, I happen to be spending a bundle on a new Snowmobile. This has happened more than once. Like I said, I really like nice new shiny modes of transport. Reading this you might form the conclusion that I would have no problem paying for insurance for each of said Snowmobiles. This however is not the case. I hate paying for insurance for anything. This might stem from the fact that I am forced by law to insure my cars, and house and have never needed to file a claim for either. So as I see it I am flushing several hundred dollars a year down a drain, never to be seen again.
