She sounds darn good..I remember these sleds when new.Local John Deere dealer was next to my grandparents house.New sleds being brought in meant time to see the updates.I hope you film more rides and the sled brings you years of enjoyment

Thanks Michael! I do intend to film some more rides… hopefully the weather will co-operate! Stay tuned!

Great video! Beautiful sled. Sure wish we had snow like that here.

@2500vtg This was from a year or two ago… we have snow, but I haven’t gone out… no real base and things haven’t frozen well.

Typical JD Liquifire low end burble,had one loved it

[@DougTrevors]

It’s the exact sound I remembered from when my dad had one.

JD 440 sleds was very good snowmobile

[@DougTrevors]

My father rode the same model from 1978 until 1992, with only basic maintenance and 1 set of drive shaft bearings!

[@funtyes1970]

Look like you have good mount of snow there about 11 months ago

[@DougTrevors]

Last winter was pretty good for snow here… not so much this winter. Been too warm and most water isn’t frozen very hard if at all.
