KRISTI Challenge!

LYNDON...

All of us who know you consider you the God Father of snowcatting. I cant tell you how proud I am to hear you speak your mind about The other " " web site. Its a shame but some people were just born assholes. Maybe one day he will grow up!
 
Well acrually the Kristi Website is very thuroughly constructed, and accurate to detail. The Owner has made a substaintial effort that cannot be overlooked. Sometimes we say stuff "Just to get a Rise out of them", and what with Avid defenders like Big Al, and Bobcat it's sometimes just too much to resist. >
CR did correctly point out to me that I should be giving proper credit to : Nelsap.org and some similar organizations that I've been grafting pictures and literature off their sites. Thanks again NELSAP!

The story doesn't end here: I had just flow from Prudhoe Bay Alaska to Anchorage, 700 Miles, flown from there(Anchorage) to Seattle, another 1500 miles, Flow from Seattle to Boston another 2800 miles then driven from Mass to Vermont to New Hampshire to Maine in Neils Porsche to meet these guys at Piston Bully. I told them that I collected older, all mechanical, non hydrolic, small snow cats. They informed me that Kossborher only made groomers, no access machines, and only started producing in 1967. So it looked like it was going to be a "BUST". After our meeting and tour of the facilities we asked if we could wander around the 'Yard' and take some photos, which they didn't have a problem with. Behind one of the shops sat a really trashed bombardiere J5. So I went back in located the president, who said;"I forgot we even had that, you can have it for 500$" I was so excited, I always wanted a J5! I didn't even haggel with him. I pulled out my checkbook and was shaking while I wrote the check! Then as I was handing him the check it occured to me; How Was I going to get it home to Washington from Maine? As if he read my mind he volunteers: Don't worry about shipping we have a 370,000 $ winch-cat going to Alaska Via Seattle, we'll ship it to you when we ship the new winch cat. Couldn't beat that!>
A couple of weeks later I was back up at work in Alaska and I get this call from Kossborher of North America. They forgot to put it on the truck would I mind waiting until they ship this other New Groomer to Stevens Pass Washington? Sure, No Problem, I'll be happy to get it when ever it comes! When I got home on my next R & R there it sat in my yard under a big oak tree. Free Shipping Coast to Coast? Not Bad! This is what it looks like today sitting down in Idaho at Bill and Mary's place.
