We've had a 2014 Razor, 2017 General, 2018 Ranger NorthStar, 2020 Ranger NorthStar and now this 2025 1500 NorthStar. Still own the 2018 & 2020 with 37,000 & 23,000 respectively. Love to fish, hunt, snowmobile, golf and follow grandkids activities.

You will fit right in here Rupp, sounds like you lead a fulfilled life.

Welcome Rupp, I think you'll enjoy this forum. That's a lot of miles on your other machines. Hopefully this one does well too as we've only had ours a little over a month and have over 500 miles on it.

Welcome Rupp, glad to see someone with machines with high miles. Definitely gives a person some confidence! Love the activities, that’s what I use mine for besides a few chores around the place. Where are you located? Don’t have kids or grandkids to follow, just some nephews and nieces. Which are expensive and time consuming enough for me. lol.

Welcome. My dad sold his 700 09 ranger with 37 thousand some miles on it. Those miles don’t come without some major repairs.

You’re obviously handy!

What you think about the 1500 so far?

Welcome to the group Rupp, I'm assuming since your handle is "Rupp Collector" you have a few classic Rupp snowmobiles and maybe a minibike or two.

Just sleds, from 1970 to 1976, all nitros and magnums.

I still can't believe the difference in all aspects from the XP1000 to the 1500. I think they finally got it right!

While not perfect as there have been some growing pains, the XD is by far and away the smoothest, quietest SXS on the market. Not to mention it is just one fine looking machine.
