Hi, Guest
If he's collecting them as a hobby, then he's spending untold thousands.
It's a worse hobby than hockey or anything else that actually gets you some exercise... even reading exercises the mind!
It's excess, just like 6 bedroom houses, Cadillacs, and my glorious home theatre. All of which listed above can be enjoyed year-round, at least.
That's MY view. It's a hobby with an asset that depreciates in value, requires extensive upkeep and insurance, and can only be enjoyed for a few months out of the year at that. It's a waste, and that's my opinion.
My collections, on the other hand, will ultimately appreciate. I already have them insured, and they require very little in upkeep besides a lukewarm room.
It's almost as bad as parking the Focus... at least you can pull the insurance off it for the winter. Well, that came out wrong. I know sleds and 4-wheelers can be insured seasonally.
It's not necessary to have one in order to get around. This isn't Nunavut. Even a motorcycle is flexible enough to take you wherever you want to go (not bound to trails) and you don't need a trail pass for a bike in order to be able to take it out of your driveway.
Sorry Nate, you're not winning this one. Skidoos and to a lesser extent 4-wheelers are just a waste of cash.
