I went to inquire about getting and switching my stuff from Ontario to here and wow

truck was certified mid April and now I have to get it certified(safetied) again here WTF?

Insurance went from $473/yr in Ontario to over $900/yr here in Manitoba

Got to get a vehicle immobilizer luckily its free but still a PIA

I am scared once I switch my sled stuff

i wouldnt be to scared about switching the sled stuff over. its not too bad

When you insure your sled check out plating your machine through autopac and put collision fire and theft on it through JJ Reich and Associates. I'm told that you can insure pretty well two sleds for the price of one going that way.

Have a good one.
Catman

ya i would suggest getting colision and theft for your sled. especially theft.



i think im going to get full coverage this year as last winter ws a bit close for comfort in the damages and when someone tried to swipe it.

Just put basic insurance on the sled and put an Arctic Cat cover over the sled........They will think it's a cat and won't steal it!!

Got that covered

arent you the guy that rolled his sled on a perfectly flat groomed trail on a straight away???

Yama doo 7- you got it good and even a shot from Snopro! LOL

SOme safety's are transferable, but it all depends on provincial rules as to whats acceptable for brake wear etc., so that's why the resafety...it's $85.00, and if it was just done should be easy. You sled insurance with MPI will likely be in that $500-$800 range if you put full coverage on, and so help you god you ever have a claim...good luck with that!!

LOL.... I have no idea where you are getting your information from young fella. But I can tell you that the info you recieved is wrong. I have never rolled a sled, yet. Now quadding I can tell you some stories....but you probably heard them already from someone who always has a camera.

if i recall right, it was on the trails in the valley where this little thing happened.


dont feel bad though, yamaha have a lot of inside ski lift on the straightways

The only thing that is correct is that it did happen in the Valley. I wasn't driving and it was not on the Snoman trail...it was Thomas Logging road.

Its a sled no need for full coverage unless new -2yrs old

But Ontario is much more strict then here, especially seeing some of the POS on the road around here

All I am saying it was certified(safetied) less then 2 months ago so why should I have to pay $85 to have it recertified

It's just another money grab!!

ya they let anything on the roads around here. as long as they get there money they dont care

MPI is famous for those!

$85 bucks should be peanuts then. Wow, some people don't seem to want to pay for things that they don't feel they need...

I just got the truck certified in Ontario were laws are more strict so why should I pay again

well it is a different province and there are different rules. did mpi tell you, you need a safety again or is that from there booklet.

Oh sorry, my mistake. I just thought that you didn't see the point of paying for something that you didn't need, and was of no real value to you, since you already had a safety (certification) done recently. When I quoted what I did, you were attacking me for not wanting to pay for something that I didn't need and was of no value to me, since I already have trails that are not maintained by the snowmobile club. Completely different. My bad, sorry for bringing it to your attention.

In 2003 when I moved a transferred a truck to my parents in Manitoba from Alberta, I sent in the recent safety from Alberta and they accepted it in Manitoba. Sometimes is just easier to ask.

I had my certification with me when I went in to get the info and quotes

I reside in Manitoba. I had a 1992 Ford F250 XLT Lariat Diesel that was in really good condition - body and mechanicals. I ordered this truck brand new. I had it inspected/safety (and it passed) by the Ford dealer who sold it to me.

If I would have tried to sell it in Kenora, Ontario I would have had to have it reinspected/safety as Ontario doesn't recognize Manitoba safety inspections.

Why????

I think the obvious answer to this recurring question is the fact that the records are kept by separate governments. They do not have the ability to follow up on any future issues and therefor would be signing off blindly. There may be differences in the safety criteria as well. Just as MPI can give you the accident history of a Manitoba vehicle but has no ability to access the records kept elsewhere. Provincial borders create provincial departments. If it was regulated federally then it would be different.

given the cost of that farce of a gun registry, I think that it's probably better to just leave the system as it is. Anything that the provinces can mess up seems minor compared to what the feds are capable of if they get involved and that's the only way that we'd ever get acceptance of safety certs across provincial borders.

very true and was exactly what i was thinking as i typed it. occaisionally the borders create a hassle but generally it allows more local control over local issues.

This might be a little off topic, and lends itself well to the conspiracy theorists, but am I the only one who has noticed that since our guns have been taken away gas prices have skyrocketed?

there you guys go again with your scary bedtime stories...now I'm a 100% on the fact the gun laws in this country are retarded and one of the biggest Liberal flops and wastes of money in the history of this country....but tying that to gas prices is a little out there. LOL

We all know that gas prices are to do with aliens anyway....right?.....right?
