Book Reviews of Snowmobile Handbook (Chilton's General-Interest Manuals)

Book Review: Useful for the first time buyer interested in older sleds
Summary: 4 Stars

Have rented snowmobiles before, but now am in the market for buying and wanted a reference book to understand what's involved in owning a sled. Folks who are aware of Chilton's reputation in automotive repair will be right at home in this manual. It's technically written and has lots of specifics for maintenance of sleds and all the other necessities of safe riding from proper helmets and apparel to 'must have' kits to bring along in an emergency out on the trail. Even if you have no plans to do your own servicing, after studying this manual you will be able to hold an intelligent conversation with your snowmobile shop mechanic. There's a section on towing a trailer for your sleds that helps in getting to the trails, too.

Since we are interested in a used sled, the book has been very helpful. Using newspaper style paper, there are no glitzy color photos except the covers; the black & white prints are small but sharp and show lots of detail. If you are in the market for a new sled, it might be a bit of a disappointment with a 1999 copyright date, hence the 4-stars. It does need to be updated as there is little mention of 4-stroke engines and the newer features found on the latest snowmobiles. This is a good study reference book.
