MnRon Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 hey scoot i own last years model, It is very heavy about 120 pounds. Has two meatle runner bars that all the seats are attached too. The new model is a bit better. Has a new seat system that the seats are removable. They got rid of the steel bars. Still heavy about 105 pounds. I like the black fabrick and has plenty windows. Triplex would need the tow bar,and a cover. Good for a guy that dose not mind the weight. Or who has a 4 wheeler, or a snowmobille for early ice. I was thinking about selling mine it is way too heavy for one guy to handle. Your looking at about 500 for the triplex about 60 for a cover, and i think the tow bar is like 150. I might sell mine for about 325 keep in mind it is different than the new model also no cover or tow bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatores Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 I also have last years tri-plex and I pulled it with a four-wheeler and no cover and it worked fine. Just need a long rope so the snow doesnt get thrown into the sled. The hitch seems like a waste of money to me. Me and my 6 year old son only used it so I had no problem handling it myself. Also I think this years model doesnt seem as good as mine. The new seats come off to easy- would blow out of a pick-up easily and just seems to be made lighter which is not always a good thing. Just my 2 cents though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 I've had one for two years and love it. I took the middle seat out and moved the the other two to their inside position and have tons of room. I can load and unload by myself but rarely go fishing alone. Black canvas is tough and really warms up nice in the sun. I would buy it over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
