Diesel motors are not normally the most simplistic things to work on, but if ur expierienced with them go for it, just like ur 4 wheeling tho ur gonna need to carry extra parts and tools to make trail fixes. Do some research see what is the most prone to going out on the specific model u r looking to buy, and order them, u don't want to be in the bc in the winter, even if its a couple miles with out spare parts

A 60' snowcat sounds extremely large to me. Where do you live?

I once saw a guy driving a super old snowcat beside the road.

Then it caught on fire.

He managed to push enough snow into the engine that the fire went out, but for a second there I thought shit was going to get real.

Um yes potentially. Hahaha. If I had a lodge / operation already I'd be more likely to jump, just having a cat isn't that useful unfortunately. Some day, I would like this.

Where do you see prices though?

I have a little thiokol imp snowcat that we take up to vail and jones pass. It's pretty sweet. This isn't actually it as I grabbed this photo from the internet but it looks exactly the same. It's good for taking lots of people up but sometimes I wish we just owned a sled.
