Friday I was headed out on a nice day-long snowmobile excursion when I stopped to show the damage to my sled to a guy I know. With him looking at the sled with me, he noticed that the damage is quite a bit more severe than I had realized. It extends all the way up into the tunnel and is badly bent around the drive shaft bearing.
$2100-2500 in damage. So, I put my tail between my legs and went back to the house. I filed a claim with my insurance company after I found out that I have accident forgiveness, so I won't be surcharged. Since I've been wanting a sled anyway, I decided to put this money toward the new one. I went to Pittsfield Lawn and Tractor and struck up a deal with my sales guy. Now I'm in the process of filling out the loan application. Greylock's rate isn't very good, but the difference between Greylock's rate and somebody elses still only comes up to about $4/month, and for that amount of money, I'd rather have it stay with Greylock because it comes out of my account automatically and I don't have to worry about it.
The real pisser is that by the time I get the sled, there won't be any snow left to ride on. :(
