New Snowmobiler re Artic Cat 2009 M8

[Live N Let Live]

Would you more experienced owners advise me what is a reasonable price to pay for purchasing two 2009 new Artic cat M8's? Are these a good fit for a first vehicle for mountainous areas? Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I got one quote, close to home, for 23 and change and wondered if I was in the ballpark while not knowing much about the park or the game. There are two M8s sitting on the floor here looking pretty tempting. I would also be willing to look over in AB.

I figure I've been all over this province on every back road by horse, 4x4 and even on foot. It will be a great pleasure to enjoy the same areas on a snowmobile. How hard can it be? I figure I'll buy 2 and it'll be like tying a pork chop around my neck -- someone will ride with me until I get my ski legs! My uncle tells me the hard part about snomobiling is waiting out the summer months. ;>)

Call Don's speed parts in wainwright. I picked up an 09 m1000 for just over $11000 so you should be less the $23000 for 2 M8's for sure.

Sounds high but check in Alberta for prices. Be sure you get you oil reservoir filled some dealers dont put oil in them [Donny].

Those are some great sleds for the mountains, for a first time sledder...... Well, as long as you ride to your ability and comfort level, and not those sleds ability, you'll be fine. Those sleds "WILL" get you into a lot of trouble up there if you let them.

From the information given to me by others and yourself, thank you, they sound like they're on the edge for my capacity. I learn fast and have some daring but mostly I have a great respect for my mortal status!
