Can I toss in my shequels into this fight ?
Substitute the HX with a 96 XP or 97-99 SPX. Tons of fun, a great motor and a simpler driveline than the HX.
Blasters are fun but I have a soft spot for the X4 hulls.
No big deal, $10-15 should get you a new one or just ride as is.
I have 5 holes in my hull from stumps and trees.
Nothing major but they do drip water out of the bilge when the ski is on the trailer. Part of the fun of running the mangroves.
Oh and lets not forget how many new cars aren't "new".
Don't worry about that gentle break in. It's already been done for you by those who get to drive that car before it even sees a dealership.
Parking lot GP used to be a blast, some even suffered body damage.
A sin indeed especially when you consider how many kraut choices are out there.
Seen the prices of Boxsters lately ?
With fuel prices still so low in North America the 2.3L turbo would make just about a perfect motor for the T's. Plenty of low end, good mid and that unique sound of the 5.
Isn't...
20V turbo Transporter would get the ski to the water in quite a hurry but a TDI is easier and a lot more fuel friendly.
Love the sound of the old boxers but them inline motors are so much easier to live with.
C'mon guys.
Don't discourage anybody from buying a new vehicle.
Let them take the hit and resupply the used market for the rest of us.
Too bad the used vehicle market is so heavily controlled by the US car manufacturers. I hate overpaying for transportation devices.
Mount a winch on it. Not to winch the skis onto the forks (although that helps) but as a safety line so one doesn't fall off.
I love working on my ski while it sits on the forklift.
