Big thanks to the Big E. Erik let us take the 18 for a lil braap today. The thing rips. Needs a wrap though, will stand out better in the pics.

Finally, I was looking for an honest review.
Let's hear the pro cons!

You gonna be on one next year?

wicked sled. If you are a Cat guy you'll love it.

i personally would rather ride a 850, but with the reliability issues they've
been having might be enough to make a guy switch.

We have one for the whole day today, so later when I get a chance I'll give some more thoughts on it

Nah I am a Doo guy but I don't want to be a test pilot.

I didn't get a chance to ride the 18 cat but I was in the dealership last week comparing the front end to the 850.

Couldn't​ believe the cat has a full alluminum skidplate. Machine looks beefy.

If the engine and clutching are on point I might have to give one a go.

Cheers

3- 2018 mountain cats in my group already. Cat releasing these sleds early was genius. Like the king cat and m900 of old these will be everywhere next year. Over 500 km on all of the ones in my group. No issues except an update on the oil level sensor.

Well we had the 18 out today. It ran good most the day, was bogging out a bit, bent a A-arm, stickers are falling off, shocks bottoming out.

But the thing has potential...

Those mountain addiction jerry cans are kinda gay,, better off to strap a real can to the boards.

I went to go do a drop today and the fawkin cornice broke in front of me. The chunk of snow that broke was the size of the titanic..

Got the heart pumping, glad I rode that one out...

Kmak scoping out a drop.

Coming in for a landing.

My old buddy Gemstar77 was more of a tree guy, but he's getting into the huck scene too. :d

 

[lilduke]

The girls, well they are kinda a pain in the ass. But we like having them around...

Ski clipped a rock. They are kinda weak but better then breaking a bulkhead I suppose.

Cat chassis is pretty solid though. It could stand to have a beefier A-arm IMO
