    You do live in the Northern Hemisphere, I think, because I do and I'm further south than you maybe. I'll have to check my map.

    They told me not to give up on my dreams, so I went back to sleep.

    It is a Volvo. Just from the looks, I think it will be a bit out of my price range.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    I like everything about it except for the need to be in snow to use it.

    Without any runners on those front skis it would not turn worth a crap.

    Also, that is the Slingshot of the snowmobile world. A car on snow.

    They brought out something similar back in the 80's called the Manta but it was not fully covered. Didn't sell then and I don't think they would sell today.

    This Company released the Raider back in the early 70's as well...

    Both machines were not successful in the market.
    At the turn of the century; they gave it another try with the Trail Roamer...

    It did not fare well either...

    But still; nobody can say that Bob Bracey wasn't an innovator.
