Up for sale is qty 1 Extreme Max Pro Aluminum Snowmobile Lift. Used once. I went out and bought what I expected to be the very best snowmobile lift that money could buy. All I actually bought was the most expensive piece of junk that money could buy. I've used it once and can't stand the thought of using it again. The form and fit are horrible, and the functionality is painful.
1) The wheels are too small. You can't roll over a zip tie.
2) I am pretty sure this thing is manufactured by 7yr olds. The holes are in the wrong locations and drilled crooked so nothing works. The corners are literally ground with an angle grinder. No two are the same.
3) The feet that go under the running boards are a huge pain to flip up and down. You can't roll the lift under the sled without them 'down' and can't lift the snowmobile without them 'up'. Tools required for everyday operation. You have to kneel down to flip the feet. Isn't the point of the lift so I don't have to lay on the floor???? Grrrr
4) Is the lift going to tip over? Who knows? It wabbles, it shakes, it might let the snowmobile fall on you and kill you...
5) Want to use a drill to power this thing up? Nope. It can barely be cranked by hand
6) It is just a matter of time before the rubber boots fail. They twist all out of position when you lift the sled up.

I'd love to brag this thing up so I can unload it, but you can tell by my feedback that I am an honest seller. Want to give it a shot? Come on over with some cash and make a deal.
I'd like to say that my loss is your gain, but more like my loss is your future loss.
I don't have the box anymore. Only the instructions. (and a large pile of disappointment)

Side note: I am an engineer, avid snowmobiler and inventor. I know how this stuff should work. If I can find a sympathetic person to take this thing off my hands, I plan to build my own lift.

Mon, 15 Aug 2011

Lotus Evora GTE Road Car Concept Lotus has taken away the Exige from its American customers with the Exige Matte Black Final Edition heralding the end, but is planning on giving back something a bit meatier at Pebble Beach trhis month in the shape of the Lotus Evora GTE Road Car Concept. All we’ve got so far is one (less than wonderful) image of the Evora GTE Road Car and a bit of detail. That bit of detail tells us that the Evora GTE Road Car is based on / inspired by the Lotus Evora GTE, which recently ran the Le Mans 24 Hours, and gets a tuned version of the regular Toyota V6 to deliver 420bhp .

Volkswagen Up (2012): first photos of VW's mini

Sun, 21 Aug 2011

Almost four years to the day after we first saw the VW Up concept car, Volkswagen is unveiling the real thing: this is the new VW Up city car, on sale in UK dealers in spring 2012. Forget the official, trendily informal name 'up!'. I'm afraid CAR's going to overrule the grammatical violations and call it the good old Volkswagen Up.
