    High Ah batteries. Where to buy in Southern AB

    We buy a lot of them at work from Interstate Batteries for scissor lifts, they work pretty well.

    Toy hauler questions

    Never thought about the 12' garage for a sxs, will keep that in mind. I did notice the Coachmen we looked at did have heat and a/c ducts to the garage. I never noticed on the other units we looked at.

    Toy hauler questions

    Most toy haulers have pretty big fresh water tanks and an outdoor hose, and we usually have a lot of water left in the fresh tank when we are ready to leave. We have a 25' toyhauler with this style of garage and if our quads are covered in muskeg or are pretty nasty I usually wash them off...

    Family Day Weekend

    My wife and I are heading up Friday morning to spend the weekend, we are staying at Twin Peaks. It's our first time to the mountains, we were just going to head to probably Bell or Lucille and not stray too far from the cabin as we are not very experienced. Pretty much just want to get some...

    Titan XD

    My 07 titan with 240k km on it pulls my trailer without any real issues. Yes it is a pig on fuel with a load behind it but the truck has 240k km on it now and pulled our 9000 lb trailer without any real problems at all. Unloaded it is pretty comparable with most 1/2 tons it age for fuel...

    Let's Talk Travel Trailer Sway

    Thats not a bad idea....I was gonna buy new batteries in the spring time anyway and I was on the fence about buying two 6 Volts vs just replacing the single one it has now. Won't make as much a difference as 4 but even one more battery should help a bit. I usually don't get any sway at all now...

    New 2015 left overs

    Nice looking sled! What'd you pay out the door? I'm looking to pick up a newer 800 too.

    2013 Polaris RMK 600 155"....Whats the difference between the PRO?

    I ended up picking up the sled. Got it for an awesome price and still has warranty for another year too, should be a great unit. I think in my situation this will actually work better than the Pro since it has that extra cooler, had a few rides around Edmonton last year where there wasnt too...

    2013 Polaris RMK 600 155"....Whats the difference between the PRO?

    Hey guys I found a good deal on a used 2013 RMK600 155" that I'm thinking of picking up for the wife, it is NOT the ProRMK. She currently rides a 2008 RMK600 155" and she quite enjoys it. Two questions: 1. How similar will the newer sled handle compared to her 2008? 2. Whats the differences...

    Registering old sled without previous registration?

    Ya the AB Bill of Sale is pretty decent. I registered a 2002 ZR500 two seasons ago and it had never been registered before. The registry office in Edmonton just asked me to show them a picture of the VIN number and they would enter it in their computer system. I had a pic of the VIN on my...

    Let's Talk Travel Trailer Sway

    Yes I do use the load equalizing bars...when I put both quads in the trailer I did try adjusting the height of the hitch and it helped a bit but can't remember if I tried adjusting the tension on the bars. I might have to give it another try next spring and see how it goes. I'm sure I will have...

    Let's Talk Travel Trailer Sway

    I have a 25' bumper pull toyhauler with a 12' garage. It does fit both of my quads inside the garage but the one time I tried to pull it with both quads inside the swaying was scary as hell....just no way to get enough weight further forward. It's my first travel trailer and I hadn't even...

    5500 diesels, lets hear it

    We have about eight F550's at work they are all between 2012-2014's. A few of them have had problems with the DEF tanks cracking during winter and one has had a few front end issues but considering the roads a lot of them are driven on they are actually holding up pretty well. I'd say in the...

    registering a write off

    I would imagine they aren't quite as picky for offroad inspections but they are still going to make sure everything is safe and functioning....brakes, steering, make sure the frame is straight, etc. For street bikes they are very particular!
