Looking to pick up a newer sled. Ridden both, the Rev was an easy adjustment while the XP will take some getting used too. The XP seems to get up on top of the snow easier, the REV feels stronger like it will take a little more abuse jumping and rippin down beat up trails. Anybody have any suggestions to make my decision a little easier? Tough to beat the deals on XP's right now!

I just switch from a 2008 polaris to a XP it is different but with time I think it will be good, a better and smoother ride than my Polaris. My brother went from a rev to a XP and likes it. Cheers.

Well a couple of my buddies have 2004-2007 Revs and I have a 2008 XP with a 154 track on it, and it is a completly different machine then the revs, I love my XP and All my buddies like it when they are riding it, but hate it when they are trying to highmark it. I personally would go with a XP.

Also the rev is the old chasis so if you think of resale down the road I would forsure go with the XP, cause people generally want the newer design

Just my 2 cents

I would go with the XP. I have one and love it. It's extremely easy to handle, lighter than the rev and it has a lot more leg room which makes it a lot more comfortable to ride when either sitting or standing.
