 What is up guys? Joe Holland here. I have an exciting reveal for the channel today Big news super exciting for me. I got a new workhorse I got a tool to use for ice fishing and for the YouTube channel. Take a look at this Brand new 2022 Expedition 900 SE. It's the big boy. This thing is a work horse Just picked it up yesterday funny story. I was about 20 seconds away from pulling into my dealer and The sled was about how probably eight weeks late just because everything's behind Still from the supply issues we're having I'm 20 seconds away and I get a text from my good buddy Dan at reboot And he's got a picture of the tag with my name on it the sled and he says I just bought this sled for $200 more than you'd paid for it And because I didn't know he was gonna be there. He didn't know I was gonna be there And then I pull in 10 seconds later and boy the fists were flying and fingers were pointed straight up And we had a pretty good laugh about it. This is the first big ticket new item I've ever purchased in my life. I've had the big bass boats and the high-money bass boats But they were always sponsored deals or straight-up sponsorships where as soon as I got it I was putting it to use and had to sell it right away Tried to get it sold just as quickly as possible to get out from under it and try to get ahead of it, too So they were never something that I personally owned or could own for the future Whereas this thing I'm hoping to have it for the rest of my life. Who knows after the last few years running the old 370 2001 long track fan-cooled Panther which was been a great sled for me. I've listened to the viewers. I've listened to the old folks I've listened to people that are older than me. Tell me you got to get a more reliable sled that can get you out of a bad situation and it won't get buried every time it sees slush and Get something that works and works good. So fishing with a bunch of buddies the last couple years I've seen the skidoo expeditions do incredibly well in slushy conditions and super cold conditions I've seen them on the trail. I've seen them get put to use And I thought that might be the best sled for me had a look at it all the options. Let's take a look so first thing first This thing has got a holder for an axe, you know, that's that's enough in itself on the SC it came with this giant box back here and You know as with any storage whether it be a garage or a great big barn No matter how big it is or how big you build it there never seems to be enough room But this thing let's take a look at this box right here This box is huge You could definitely fit a bunch of babies in there if you need to probably fit my 26 inch jack traps in there and a ton of ice fishing stuff safety stuff And it's the link system so I can add to it and and things link and lock onto it This is not a review of this sled because as far as you just saw driving it out of the trailer is as far as I've driven it Yeah, this is it. So I'm not going to tell you this is the greatest thing ever the best thing in the world I'm gonna put it to the test before I tell you that this is just a reveal and to show you how excited I am to have this thing So I got the storage box here great big thing mounted on the back and then we have a passenger seat passenger seats got heated Hand warmers, which is crazy. It's got a couple different settings on that and then underneath that passenger seat You could flip that up like that There's another box with even more storage. So there's more storage there dry storage got a battery there The heated hand warmers there so I could actually take this seat off if I do the same thing on the other side and I could put the gas tank here or other storage here if I don't need the second seat And for more storage there's also storage up front here where I have my tools and my owner's manual Which I plan on reading some night before bed up on the ice this week I didn't do a lot of add-ons for add-ons all I did was the heavy-duty receiver hitch in the back Got this baby here There's the receiver hits there and then this can come out if need be and I could put other attachments in it or a winch in it If I need it But yeah, that's it fellas There she is. I'm can't even tell you how excited I am to have it I I think the day I decided I was definitely gonna buy a new sled was the night on Moose head where I got buried about Two two and a half miles out Buried in the slush and it was 20 below zero and I had to get some Gentlemen some senior citizens luckily came out and help me get it out with their two new sleds so That walk-in was a long lonely walk They gave me a lot of time to think and think about the future and think about how much more I want to do this think about being safe and And putting a little ease on me. So yeah, huge purchase I was really it took a long time for me to pull the trigger I pulled the trigger on the very last day of spring order on March on the last day of March because I just couldn't figure if it was worth buying a new sled and and And you know, it's a lot of money to justify, but I've worked really really hard You know not just on the YouTube channel But with my business to to save enough money to buy this thing and really excited to put it to work And like I said, it's not a toy this thing is a tool and she's gonna be used as a workhorse not a showpony The other thing I got on this on this particular model is the ice raker track. So this is a 20 inch wide track It's got the decent size paddles and every paddle has a spike in it already So it's got like they're almost like the ones you have in your car tires, but they're actually a little bit sharper So each paddle has those built right into it Suspension when you're in reverse lifts up so that way you're not digging in driving into the snow You could you could actually set that To do that or come up or not come up if you if you prefer it But when you're in reverse rather than dig down into the deep snow It should kick you up and get you on top of it About 40 inch wide skis on the front of this thing sits up pretty high It's got a high and low range right here It's got a computer screen right there With all the info you'll need sport mode a auto mode Temp setting no more mixing oil or filling an oil reserve this thing is a four stroke So that's about as loud as it's going to be right there a couple things. I'm going to throw in the back I'm going to throw in a no-coat Charger and jump starter because I can't seem to find the pole cord on this thing. It is a 900 So they told me to take a couple of guys bigger than me to pull start it So there's no starter on no pole start on it. So you better have a battery box I'm going to throw a tow cable on there I'll also throw probably a farm jack on that thing just in case I do get it stuck and I'm thinking about possibly mount mounting a winch We're getting a winch like an electric winch for it. If not just to come along Also, I'll have a first aid kit in there and some warm-up stuff that need be and then the only other Modification I had them do it chase where I got it from in unity was I had them throw some scratchers on there So these scratchers will flip down Right there and they're spring-loaded and What they'll do is they'll flip down and scratch the ice when there's no snow to lubricate the track and the runners 665 pounds dry, so she's pretty heavy and then you throw me on there, and it's probably closer to 780 pounds or something Yeah do the math But she's a heavy she's a heavy beast It's one of the biggest ones that they make so it's going to be comfortable It's going to be a workhorse and hopefully I don't get it buried and and hopefully it works just the way I want it to work as a tool super pump to have this guys Can't tell you how much I appreciate all the comments and support on the channel some of the money that that I made that I was able to make off the channel through advertisements that Google runs that I don't choose or anything Help pay for this so the support from the channel means a lot when we do like a live premiere video and People drop money in the super chat that this is the type of stuff it goes to it doesn't go to Align in my pocket or make me any fatter it goes directly back into the channel and into fishing stuff Stay tuned this season guys Hopefully you'll see that baby going to work a lot more and and hopefully I'll be able to get myself To the fishing holes and off the ice when I need to and on to the ice and and all over the lakes when I need to so The only thing it didn't come with was enough snow as you could say we got some green grass still poking itself out over there Not much snow left or we're due to get some here. I think tomorrow But I'm I'm itching to get up north so within the next few days I will be way up north where there's already 8 to 12 inches Probably fishing like the Chamberlain Lake chain or something like that Guys, I'm here to pick up the new sled and you won't even believe Who got here a half hour before me and they just offered a hundred dollars more for my sled I think they got it look at these two look at these two bottom feeders Following Joe everywhere he goes we heard he had a snowmobile here that he was gonna pick up So I I said you know what I'm gonna go offer the guy the owner to a hundred dollars more sure enough He's getting ready to load it on my truck for only a hundred dollars more than he gets to keep my five hundred dollar deposit So he made out like a panda But here's Abe and Dan are here a reboot and what did we pick it up today fellas? I'll explain that one So Abe so the thing about Abe is okay polar bear works a lot of hours Sometimes we do emissions and there's not a machine left for him to come down to fish with us And he's getting tired of it So he he broke down and bought this nice force been flares with the tracks And he's gonna show up when he can when it actually wakes up from working nights come down and give us a hand Because he only gets come down a few times a year and it's always like it's hard to go up to get them and When I'm busy, so now we can just show up what he wants to well It's good. He finally spent some of that money These guys are rough and the only thing polished about him is that first nickel Abe's got that he ever heard still in his pocket Oh, it's a dime. Sorry. Yeah, that's the only polished about these guys. They are rough just like me So but here's a new machine for Abe. Look at this. Yeah, Abe. You're gonna look good on that thing 570 sportsman EFI nice and what are we putting on a track? Yeah, putting the tracks you got the common flash tracks all three so conditions aren't that great I like these tracks a lot. I got them on my side by sides and they they hold up pretty good Nice and it looks like it's comfortable for at least two people easy. Yeah, nice That is beautiful, can I have it? No, I can't
