Default Tundra LT

Guy I know asked me today if I want to buy his 2009 550 Tundra LT. It's got 600 miles on it and he wants $4500. He's knows I trap so thought I would be interested. I have never been a fan of sleds and have never drove one much. When I bought my line it came with 3 sleds and I sold them right away. With the weather we have had this year a sled would definetly have come in handy. I just want a workhorse that is reliable and doesn't get stuck all the time. I weigh about 250 lbs and of coarse will be loading it up with gear. I know tundras are a utility sled. I just need to go from point A to B without issue and will just be going slow. For you long line trappers out there does this sound like a good deal?

Well to put it this way, if you don't want it, I do.
Very good deal, these machines are hard to find.


I'm in the market if someone else has one forsale.......

The 09 has the exposed front end with the independent suspension. They're a bit of a hazard and expensive to fix should you hit a rock or log under the snow (trust me I know) but not as tippy as the pogo front end ones. Does it have the two passanger seat? They're a good machine you could buy it and flip it even

It's a 2 seater and the only problem I know of is the electric start did not work for him when he pulled it out the other day. That could be just a quick fix. Had a fight with my fiance last night over it. I bought a boat last year and that was supposed to be it for toys for awhile. This is not a toy tho it's a tool I tried to explain. Sounds like I can't really go wrong and could always flip it cause it seems everyone wants one. Thanks guys.

If u really hate sleds and love quads, you could just buy tracks for your quad instead.

Well I bought it and I'm still engaged! Picked it up for $4250 and got it serviced. Had to replace the ignition switch. Took it out yesterday to pull all my wolf snares and put an end to my season, She started and ran great so I'm sure I'll keep her for a long time as it won't see alot of miles. When I do sell it I'll post it on here.
