I’ve found the new sled I want with what I want on it. Got a firm price but I’m struggling pulling the pin on putting a down payment on it. So much uncertainty out there and the governments keep threatening another shut down. I’ve been lucky I’ve stayed busy through the B.S and have the money saved up definitely not financing a toy. Part of me says do it enjoy it. The practical side says might not be the right time to spend the money. Going to need to make the decision sooner than later or it will be gone.

Depends where you are in life. Maybe if you are young you will have many years left to enjoy riding?? Maybe if you are getting a little older you may not have many years left to go hard??
Exactly
The world is a changing place and changing rapidly.
I am on the older side and was bitcin' to missus the SXS needs clutch work again.
She said "get a new one", and I think I will.
I say go hard before COVID or the govt find a way to get you(both are just as useless)........do it!

Exactly, my Dad passed away at 48 with cancer 14 years ago. That man worked his ass off to give our family the comforts and little pleasures like sledding. We didn’t have the latest and greatest, but those memories will always be there.
He always said, “Live within your means, and live life to its fullest.

Hi I am in the same boat as you. Just add like 40 years on to your age. I pulled the trigger on a new unit. Going to ride the **** out of it to the best I can . Wife said I trust you. Going to chute climb as best I can. See all the valleys I did when I was 15 and up. Do not think I will sleep over night in the Bush like we did in the past. Had a lot of friends that looked after us all back then. My be meet you in the hills.
jesus 48 is far to young!

I lost my pops at only 48 also. I was 24. Gonna be 50 in a month. That’s why I ride so much all my life. I’m not sure how long I will be able too. I’m really torn on my snow check. I have alpha now. Still in warranty. New sled is a want. Not a need.
I’m guessing when they call I’m taking it

I bought a new sled last week and it feels great. I thought about it back in early April but the world was coming to an end and my wife lost her job but a few week ago I thought my current 2017 is in great shape but sure would like to be on a 850 so I pulled the trigger

Some would disagree but I'm pretty sure you only die once. (And then some might disagree with that too)
Good choice, you will love it. best sled from any manufacture so far for mountain riding.
