2022 Sled Rumors??

[maxwell]

Snowcheck this past Spring was a different animal. Dealers had to deal with the thought of no one being interested in putting money down due to Covid while at the same time the used market was in the toilet. My dealer took a chance and discounted so they could rely on the unit volume kickbacks they would get from the manufacturer if they moved a certain number. It paid off for them and as everybody knows, the market went crazy. The in-season sleds sold too at a higher price than the fancy snowchecks. And if you want the best price you do always need to bring cash and not finance. I really doubt there will be any deals for 2022 sleds unless you are buying an unchanged model.
And don't forget that Polaris is supplying Golden tickets again that gets you $1000 off if you bought a 2021. It does help.

yea, would be nice if skidoo did a similar promotion. There is really no incentive for upgrading your snowmobile every year. not even if you snowchecked 15 years in a row. Ill never understand that

I found my platinum owners club toque from when I snowchecked my 2015 T3. Sure would be nice to get that again with the 2022 . Sold the T3 the other day so it’s game on for snowcheck season!

 

[NoBrakes!]

haha I have that toque and the gear bag lol Those were good evenings...

100% they were, really cool to talk shop with the pros and check out/buy gear as well.

The gear bag is actually pretty decent. Works good as a gym bag, better than the freebie the gym gave me lol

 

[maxwell]

Those were great bags still use mine all
The time. I don’t think that was a platinum thing I think martins did that extra if I recall

Maybe some guys are a little luckier than others. I have got more than my share even though I haven't snow checked dozens but it is over a dozen sleds. Hang in there bud and the Karma will turn to good Karma.

The bags are great and we use them for travel bags instead of suit cases. They still look brand new. The toque has a liner in it and is great to carry in the jacket pocket to put on when the wind is blowing and one has to take off the helmet. Am I the only one to get a hat?? Sorry but I don't know which years we got which gear.

About $2000 but you get less with the Polaris, about 30 lbs less that is.

And have to push it with your legs too lmfao

 

[tex78]

No it had a centre mount turbo, 9 lbs boost, expert tunnel, skidoo steering and a tether. What else does skidoo have that polaris doesn’t that I’m missing?

And it looks just like a g4

The matrix that is, it's a real close to skidoo

Do you use those Ski-Doo bags so people won’t steal your $hit?

My 2021 Khaos 165, QD2 and upgraded coloured paint and rails actually came in at a lower price than my 2019 174 by a couple hundred dollars. There was a reason that Cycleworks Calgary had the most snow check sales in Alberta.

For Polaris you mean?

Thats because your dealer is wearing all your bling!

Way more money in a deal financing than cash Chris. Cash is cash. Financing is kickbacks for the loan, extra aftermarket warranty, disability and life insurance. Dealers love financing.

don't dealerships also get product at better pricing based on volume levels which they can choose to pass on to customers and get even more volume and even more discounts. I used to buy gmc trucks for my business and the dealer would give me a heck of a deal at year end sometimes cause he needed the sale to hit a volume target

I have those as well. The bag is cool.

 

[snopro]

The only volume discount you get from Doo is on PAC. You can get some percentage points knocked off if you exceed your recommended number. I think you can get a break on units if you pay cash for them in July but not many dealers have that kind of coin to take advantage of it. I have no idea how Polaris's system works. They must have good coin in their mark up if they can knock off $2000 a snowcheck sled. Maybe they get volume discounts? Rhodesie or Chrisco may know more on that but may not want to comment? Not good for business. Lmao!

Different than auto sales. Everyone thinks the power sports dealer is rolling in dough. lol

In all the snowchecks seasons I have participated in at the dealerships the customer in most cases gets more knocked off than what the dealer gets to keep.
