That has the 488 fuji engine which is known to be bulletproof. I've got the classic with 12,000 miles. I thought about building an auger mount for 1 of my sleds but with a heavy auger and deep snow and me not getting any younger... I just figured it is easier to lay it in a jet sled. Don't let that discourage you though, a lot of great auger mount ideas out there and if I was a run & gunner I'd do the same and leave the jet sled home.
