Low mile 2013-2016 163” Skidoo summit. They are pretty much bullet proof and reliable.

SAME BOAT!

I didn't know whether to start my own post or piggy back on this one!

I am also looking for my first sled! I am based out of Portland, OR but don't work in the winter so I am just cruising around sledding all winter. I wont be sled necking much but using my sled to access backcountry ski zones!

I would really like to get something used around 4ish k that will be able to handle deeeep powder and fuel injected still powerful enough to double up with a buddy to do ski laps!

let me know if I am off my rocker with that price!
also if anyone knows of some good sled / ski zones in WA or OR gimme a hollar!

( I might need to start my own thread)
