Thanks. She does some cool stuff.

Great video!! I put a small shovel where that saw holder is. remove that small plastic piece and you're good to go. Your spec out is spot on too, got everything you want or need. My musts haves after having one of these machines for 3 years are the skins, cargo box, glove box extension and your cargo rack and you got all of them! Great job!

Thanks for the idea on the shovel holder. Appreciate your comments. Are you running a gps mounted to the extension and if yes which model?

Great machine bought there.

Great video all around. I am guessing you are in Manitoba? I just snowchecked one for next winter (hope for some snow!) and I chose the blue colour but a little nervous about that choice. I will definitely put the winch on the front (probably not for trail riding...). I got the Turbo R. I know it doesn't make sense really but I had to. Hope we meet up on the trail or better, back country.

Thanks, I am in MB. I am guessing you were not able to get out to breezy bend to look at the colours in person. Winch makes sense and I get the turbo desire. I do hope you get more snow than I got my first year. You got better terms on your snow check this year! I recognize other expeditions on the trails so it’s a possibility!

Very nice, but there is a problem. The dealer forgot to put the turbo on it. You have to take it back immediately. The turbo will let you get away from the people that much faster. And that is important.

That is hilarious! Valid point!

One small correction, the 7.8" gauge is the color display. Yours is the 7.2". There's also a 4.5" on the LE and the Xtreme that looks similar to yours but smaller. Also the 10.25" is also color but it's specific to the G5 sleds...can't put it on the Expedition because it's still on G4 plastic.

You are totally correct. For some reason I just can’t keep them all straight! 😂 Thanks for clarifying for others.

So did it snow? Ontario season was a disaster

NOPE. No Snow. Our season was a week and a half in January and a weekend in March. That’s all. And one weekend I was not able to go and couldn’t take off work to go play. I guess on the bright side - no fuel sock problems! 😂

I noticed the snowmobile cover at the beginning of the video. It looks like it was it made to cover the driver and passenger seat? Do you know what the ski doo part number for that was? I cannot seem to find one that says it will also protect the passenger seat that comes with these sleds.

860201972 is what’s on the box. Rev G4 wide -Exp LE SE Med-U/high w/s ROC. Is the description along with canvas cover towage kit. Hope that helps you! Confirm with the dealer before ordering if necessary. The cover fits very well. It’s perfect.

Thank you very much!

haha yea Ski Doo and Lynx are really "the same stuff". i have the same glove box on my Lynx. looks the same, same size. same button to open it and so on. And the display. its the same. but your´s is wider cuz you have more functions than i do on my Lynx XTerrain 2020. Well i have learned it is registered with the Swedish "DMV" in dec 2020 but its a 2021 model.

I am sure they share many common parts or at least designs. They have started to offer more lynx brand items over here as well. I am not positive but I think the expedition was based on a lynx model originally. 🤷🏼‍♂️ I like that they added gps to the colour gauge package and made it backward compatible for 2025. Not that I ordered that package anyway! 😂

Most reliable was always a Yamaha. So of course they’re getting out of the snowmobile business. Ski do is a great sled to go with.

Warm winters and rising costs aren’t helping them or any of the manufacturers. Be an interesting few years coming up I think.
