there is a Linq box of 130 liters which has an attachment for an ax on the outside

We’ve got a Grand Touring 600ace for our kids. Perfect sled to learn on and plenty of power for kids learning to trail ride. Not great off trail where more power would be nice. Congrats on the Skandic 900ace, that engine is a perfect step up from the 600ace! My neighbour has the Tundra with the 600EFI 2-stroke and it’s amazing off trail - lightweight and good bottom end power.

Thanks! We are impatiently waiting for it to arrive

Appreciate the thorough review. Trying to decide on the ACE or EFI for a trapping sled. Over 20 more horsepower in the 2stroke...

Thanks, yes that’s a tough one. we have heard good things about the EFI but haven’t tried it. We went 4 stroke as it has the best gas mileage, but we find the gearing is too high for the style of riding we do.

My buddy using, the tudra ace skidoo for as a vehicle, but very efficient on fuel, when the trail has been made, will buy one.

It’s a great trail machine 😊

Cool!

Watching your videos, it’s obvious you’re quite a small lady, and you’re really having problems keeping the Tundra upright. It’s a tough learning curve, especially with your smaller size and light weight. It’s too bad you’re not going to stick with the Tundra. Smaller drivers are a fairly easy swap and make a huge difference. If you found the Tundra a handful on side hills and that sort of thing, a wide track is really going to be a bear for you. If you end up with an Expedition, pull the sway bar off first thing.

Respectfully, the block heater's real use is so the motor doesn't have to start from so cold, making it much easier on the internals. An added benefit is it warms up much faster for use. If you have a place to plug in, try it for a week or so.

Thanks for the feedback. Indeed, we are aware of this, and that's why we all have installed block heaters. We live off the grid and our solar system does not support us plugging them in, but we all have them as we know their benefits. Thanks again and thanks for watching!

I have a 600ace swt I’m always pulling heavy loads deep snow on my trap line no problems yet

Yes, the super wides are amazing. We went with a WT 900 ace with studded track. That should be a great improvement.

I wonder if the 600 efi two stroke would make the sled better? Love your channel!!!

I had a2016 scandic 20 wide 900 ace and by far the best snowmobile I have ever owned. That's my guess, a scandic 20 wide. Excellent for towing breaking trail and backing up, only yesterday I was looking at ordering another for next winter, take care.

Yes the Tundras are abit tippy . I have a 550F and some years ago i got my first 4stroke . It was a Lynx 49 Ranger 900ACE . Its really a awsome machine too. Not sure if they sell Lynx series where you are but Lynx is member of BRP family . Its not that heavy like the Expedition . You would love it too i am sure of . Greetings from Sweden /Thomas

Hey Thomas! Thanks for watching our videos. You live in a beautiful country too. We spent some time there in 2008! (We were bike touring from Cairo to Northcape) Yes, indeed. We noticed that They start to sell Lynx here too. We ordered the 2024 Skandic wt for leandra in a 900 ace. We think that would be the best for her. Thanks again for watching! Cheers

I notice you have the cargo rack installed on the Tundra. Ski-Doo says that that bumper/rack only fits on WT/SWT only. Did you have to make something custom up to get that to fit? Just curious.

Hi! Thanks for watching. that’s interesting that they said that. We ordered it from the local skidoo dealership and it was no issue, and no adaptation was needed. We installed it ourselves.

Agreed on the belt squealing. This machine. Needs lower gear ratio….it already has the lowest chain/gear combo…. So skidoo should put 6 or 7 tooth drivers instead of the 8 tooth it comes with stock. I sold my 600ace for that reason. And went with the 600efi. Would go back to the ace if ski doo gets the gear ratio rite like the 2016 tundra ace

@TheBrientFamily

Yes that squeel is maddening 😅. It seems more geared for fast riding than slow trail breaking, like we do mostly.

I think you are getting scandic wt or swt with 900 ace,would be a great machine

Did the tundra 600 ace have enough power for a 1 person rider I can’t decide if it will be enough for me or if I should just go with the 900 ace in the skandic Le I weigh 195-200 and usually ride in deep powder

@TheBrientFamily

It will have enough power, but consider what you want to use it for. We passed it on to our son and he loves it for playing in the snow. It didn’t work for us as a towing/working machine.

are you getting a expedition LE ?

Hi, I am owner the Tundra LT 600ACE 2011. I have it 14 year during. I have a 10 Litres by 100 km, may be same more if 2 mans (1+1), 20 litres is very big appetite! Is it with big trailer and deep snow?

It was towing a load through deep snow indeed. but out of the three snowmobiles, it's definitely the most fuel efficient machine.

Spring order an Expedition, put a 900 under the hood and problem solved.
