you go momThere's another way to look at it too. I am a thrifty kind of mom and we sled right from our house so we have no travel/trailer expense.
If we sled every day I will go through 3 Jerry cans(25L) per week. =65.00
20.00 for oil. For clothing and accesories, there is no way we could afford 800 for one person let alone the 6 of us. There is a second hand store that from time to time has actual snowmobile gear. We have one of those hooville type snowmobile suits for the bigger kids that works great. I shopped on ebay for helmets, for everyone. I still have my jacket from 10 years ago, would like to upgrade but that would be like 3 weeks of gas. You really save money when you take kids as you don't have such a big beer tab. We take a coleman thermos full of tea, a few hot dogs, and we're set. I compensate by not driving my truck to town as much.
