How much are you spending ?? $$$$

Summitraxx · Feb 23, 2018

Hey Folks , just curious how everyone out there are spending on average annually( per season ) to pursuit your sledding passion ?? that include all your travels & accommodations, fuels , trails fees , wearable stuff, new gears , but that exclude snowmobile purchases . Don't do the math exercise over the last 10 years it might explained why you didn't contribute to the max to you retirement plan LOL ;o .
Threw your numbers !!

And please share if there an increase or decrease in trend ....some of us get obsessed ...some of us try to moderate because of life priorities .

Cheers !

I was about $3000 last year before truck/sled fuel. So probably close to $6k with that in.

I haven't got a clue. I don't budget and I don't add things up. The only thing that I count are the number of days/year.

Wow if you included everything it would be staggering, but most sledders are like casino addicts never see their losses

Jsymes · Feb 23, 2018

15000

RXN · Feb 23, 2018

About 4 grand last year
And 1500 this year

$4000/month?? how is that even remotely possible unless you are riding every week.

what ever the number is my wife can never find out.

I work 14 days on 14 days off. I sled about 10 days on my days off. I spend $100 a day for trail fees and gas and oil. I broke my clutches last month and had a break down yesterday. That totalled about $1100. But on average I would say about $1500/month.

jhurkot · Feb 23, 2018

$30000 but I included sled depreciation in that number. 80-90 days.

JustChilling19 · Feb 23, 2018

Don’t even want to add it up, it’ll hurt too much. $1000 a trip average for expenses then a few thousand a year for repairs. At $3000 in repairs this year minimum after the latest incident. Easily $10-$15k before truck/trailer/sled.

Add in in the wife’s sled when she comes and it’s even more.

Still wouldn’t trade it for anything. Everyone needs a release.

I don't spend near enough as I have not yet been out. Hoping for a busy spring...sledding not work related.

moyiesledhead · Feb 23, 2018

Don't spend a lot really. I unload 5 minutes from my house and can be at 6500ft 20 minutes later if I choose. No trail fees. Put up with some bumps. Sleep in my own bed. Make my own lunch. Still ride a 2010 sled. Life is good!
