Thanks guys for the advice.I have never ran my cart in the snow in 13 years of carting,you guys got me to thinking how much fun this could be.I won't do this on the trail as I have to trailer my cart for about 20 minutes to get to the trail.I am in a different warehouse from last year due to being broken into and having all my stuff stolen.Where I'm at now it is flat and a lot more space,but as usual saftey comes first. mancoman

I'm checking out a pair of skis for the front of the buggy tomorrow. I know a few quad guys in the NW running skis with paddles on the rear, I might be the only buggy out there...

Not enough snow for me either. I'm sure our BuggyNews members in Canada will figure a way to mount skis to their buggys and take a break from riding snowmobiles. Very Happy

Buggies can run great in the snow - even our yerfdog tears it up with a set of chains from an old JD lawnmower I had:

The mudlites handled the snow pretty good last winter - but chains are best!
