Why don't sleds have hour meters?
There is a hell of a difference between 100 miles of tight twisty trails vs 100 miles on 20 foot wide flat groomed sno-highway trails. Isn't an odometer on a sled kinda useless?
I'm get sick of hearing friends measure their worth by miles per ride or miles per season when there is a huge difference in how and where those miles are put on.
My truck has an hour and odometer for that reason. My brothers truck had what my truck had on it for miles but his hours were double (mine were all highway miles on the truck), therefor his engine IMO had more wear than mine even though the "miles" were the same.
