Hot Rod Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 Well, I didn't really steal it but close. Gander Mtn had the Fortrex 80# with US2 on an "end of season" sale. I got the last one still in the box. Only $750! Wasn't sure I wanted the US2 option but at that price I couldnt' pass it up! Should be a big improvement over my MK Maxxum 65# SC! Just can't wait for "ice out" to try it out. Quote
Super User K_Mac Posted January 16, 2010 Super User Posted January 16, 2010 I paid $200 more than that on sale. Great buy! I think you will like the TM and the US2 is a really nice feature. Edit: I just checked my sales receipt. You saved $260 on my price. Quote
Casca Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 sweet find. don't you just love those clearance sales. regards, Casca Quote
sacnho Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 After looking at this post I decided to go to my local Gander Mountain and see if they had any trolling motors on sale. As it turns out they had a Minnkota Maxxum 70 that was normally $799 on clearance for just a little over $500. Not as good a deal as a the Fortrex 80 for $750 but I had been wanting the minnkota with the maximizer feature so I pulled the trigger on it. Cant wait till spring! Quote
the donkk Posted January 18, 2010 Posted January 18, 2010 Thanks for the heads up, I just went to my local Gander Mtn and sure enough they had a Fortrex for $750 so I got it. Needed a new one but didn't want to spend over a grand to get what I wanted. Quote
