The lac...No, there aren't electric snowmobiles. The lack of performance would defeat the purpose. Karl: have you ever ridden one? Do you have any idea how small the tanks are and how long they last? Think about the percentage of states that even have a suitable climate for snowmobiling, then think about how long that season lasts. How can you argue that it's so harmful to the environment when it's typically the alternative to driving a big 4x4 V-8 around all winter? No full-size truck that I know of can get 25 mpg. Being from North Dakota, I would say that the percentage of people who stay home, along with their cars, for most of the winter brings far more environmental relief than in non-snowmobiling season without them, assuming that we have any power to "relieve" the environment, or bring harm to it, for that matter. <br /><br />Leave our snowmobiles alone, or else start bashing on the high performance, supercharged V-8 and V-10 European sports cars that fill the roads in the southern and coastal states, YEAR-ROUND.Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10642907919692830243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1355271200802154604.post-90192470697479323462009-03-03T08:23:00.000-05:002009-03-03T08:23:00.000-05:00Are there quiet, electric, snow machines?Are there quiet, electric, snow machines?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1355271200802154604.post-1338779861863935502009-02-28T19:59:00.000-05:002009-02-28T19:59:00.000-05:00Hi Karl: Better tread softly when it comes to snow...Hi Karl: Better tread softly when it comes to snowmobiles. In the northcountry they rate right up there with God. Here is a little trivia...There are more snowmobile roads in NH than there are auto roads. (Bet you didn't know that one).
