My neighbors which have been talked about here in the past just up the road just shake their heads at me when they see my out wrenching on these sleds. Now I upped the ante a bit, with the 600 MUTT hanging out the back of my truck, they really dont know what to think and I get a kick out of it. I just wave and give them the bird and drive by.....


;)

As for why a Deere, to me it goes back to child hood memories, 2 uncles with sleds and me dreaming of having one, this was back around 1978 or 79.

I really wish I could find the pictures I drew back then of sleds I craved for. Now I am getting them. :lol:

Why because no one else has heard of them and tells you they dont exist. Its fun to one a piece of history. Plus they are a two stroke and are very easy to work on. BOB

I grew up on a Wisconsin dairy farm with John Deere tractors and snowmobiles. We didn't have any Liquifires and I always wanted one. Now I have a 76,77,78, and 80 440 Liquifires plus a bunch of parts sleds. Another big reason is this site and everyone that uses it. Duane

One word-----CHARACTER! The newer sleds don't have it! The newer ones are all the same in my opinion, but nothing runs like a DEERE. Jay
