No..... I'm driving it through the trees and digging it out by myself on occassion. Also really thinking about the Nytro MTX for what I do with a sled, and trying to collect data for comparisom.
 
its around the 700lb mark full of fuel ready to ride.

Nytro MTX will be 100+ pounds lighter. its about 520 dry, smaller gas tank helps a lot with weight. it will definitely be around 560-575 wet

Yeah...I hear ya. I guess I'm a bit sensitive to the whole weight thing...it must be a self esteem issue :) :).

I agree worming through tight trees at slow speeds is a workout. I practice avoidance and draw my own lines...I don't have to go very fast for it to become effortless.

I learned quick with my RX1 mtn...I'm not liftin' or diggin' nuthin'.

As soon as the sled starts to dig down..I stop and take a look around to see if it's deep snow, a hidden bush, or an uphill slope that's got me. I then wade out in front of the sled and swim out a path in the direction I need to go. I then grab a front ski and swing the front end into the path. Next I use my legs to pack the snow a bit under the front of the track. Then I get on and boot 'er out!
