    LOL!

    These parts, call it a Ski-Doo and everyone is going to think you're talking about the "Sea-Doo" 2-person PWC.

    I've never heard... locally or in the media... "Snowmachine", it's always been "Snowmobile"

    Saw "Sled" being used more and more on the forums after 2005. Not just the flatbillers... older more conservative too.

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    I don't sled yet, can't afford it, but most common term is sled, sledding, sledders etc around here. Snowmobile is common, but you never hear snowmachine.

    Wife and I use the term "sled".

    BTW, I use a "snowblower" to clear my driveway.

    When I need to use it, I don't say "I'm going out to blow the driveway"... I say "I'm going out to clear the driveway".

    ... big difference. :D

    If I heard you say "blow the driveway", I would be quickly looking up driveway in the urban dictionary:D
