They are all pretty good machines. The real truth is if 1 of the 4 ever goes under. The prices will start to rise. I am however surprised Ski doo didn't put out a turbo but I bet its in the works.:D

Your right. They are all pretty good sleds. Then there's the doo. I'm not surprisedm. These manufactureres are forced by the government to offer consumer warranties. How do you go about offering a 3 year warranty on a 2 stroke turbo? Not going to happen in my lifetime. BUT I am suprised they didn't build a 4 stroke turbo to compete with cats new 1100 turbo because they did sell a lot of those it seems.

Funny story. Talking to a guy who worked at a Skidoo dealer for 5 years now at a farm cleaning up bull sht. Anyways he was shocked about how much better the farm smelled compared to the SkiDoo dealership. Also to his amazement was some of the technologies the farm uses (like a shovel and hip waders). Now I know it's biased because that's where he works but he seriously sounded shocked and surprised

Lmao!! If I could like, and love this post on tapatalk I would!

nice a bashing thread I like these! I wanna bash them hard but I gotta say it atleast poo stepped up a lot more than chitty kitty. Thew new pro is a good machine if u like a sled with trainning wheels. but as much as poo thinks they have a cool sled but come on now poo boys just take 1 look at your sled from 2010 it looked suprisingly like an arctic cat M series now it looks like an xp like seriously how many looks and ideas are poo gonna steal to try and be the #1 sled yes last year they have been but i'm pretty sure it's gonna be back to skidoo again this year! It is nice pulling into revy or sicamous and seeing doo's and poo's and barely seeing any of those new pro climb garbage sleds

K ........Jared... Love ya buddy... but Training Wheels... Really......




Wait for it...












Jared.. you now have a "That's one" too......

It's supposed to be skidoo's 16" wide "training track" so you don't lose your balance, same idea with children and training wheels. Then they grow up and ride a big kid bike, or in this case a big kid sled :D

Funny story. Talking to a guy who worked at a Polaris dealer for 5 years now at a skidoo dealer slinging parts. Anyways he was shocked about how little problems the BRP products have compared to the polaris. Also to his amazement was some of the technologies BRP uses.

Lame!!!

Gotta buddy who told me his uncles cousin knows a guy who works at a Doo dealership, said he couldn't believe how many near new Doo's are being written off because of bent nuns!!!

. My bad!! Thought that's what the weak front end parts were called, don't change the fact that they bend easy and are very expensive to replace when you add in labour costs. The post was sarcasm, in reply to the lame comment I was responding to.
