[quote hooknhunter]Seems like the snow is often too deep for that to help me much. I take my ATV a lot, but can't take the ATV and the sled unless I pull a trailer too. That costs more in gas money, so I've been contemplating........ Can I get by without my sled and just pile everything on the ATV? I also bought a smaller sled last year (so now I have 2). The smaller sled would fit in the cab (back seat) of the truck, saving gas. Maybe I could get by with just the smaller sled? But then I'd need a new tow bar........ Hmmmmm. Too many things to think about. I'm going to have to quit my job so I can focus on the important things. [

To avoid having to take a trailer and a sled for behind the ATV look at the drop baskets made for the ATV. They fit 3 5 gallon buckets behind the wheeler and you still have your rack for more gear. I put my auger and tent up on the front rack and buckets and other gear in the back. The best part its that you don't have to load and unload a sled at the ramp. everything rides fine in the rack. On mine and most others the drop portion comes off so you can take it off when needed. Paid 80 dollars for mine on ebay. Might be just what your looking for???
