X2 and no gst on used so its save money for buyer........


Your right. 13500 all in plus tax. My 2013 had led light. Quick clickers. Powder screens. Spare belt. Rear seat bag extension. 2 up rear springs. 12 volt plug. So yeah there's some value in add ons and a bigger Loss for me

Ya' could have had a good Etec for quite a bit less than the $13G's.....just saying:D

I know, you had me thinking hard Doug but we bought a TT and a quad instead. Toy money is all gone until I have more saved up for the fall delivery haha.

Why not pull the easy stuff like led light, clickers, screens, bag and keep them for the 2014?

I agree but I wasn't willing to gamble ~$13k that the one I got would be 'a good one'

No guarantee your gonna get a solid Doo either though. I'll find out monday if my engine was built on a friday afternoon or not.
But on the whole their average of happy customers and good rep at least seems to be higher than that of Poo.....

just looking around classifieds on mutiple sites. 2013 RMK are going for anywhere from 8500-10,500 and not to many of them moving. 2013 summit x models are anywhere from 12,000+ and people are getting it. HMMM. that extra little purchase price doesnt look so bad now?
Doo has ALWAYS had a higher resale than most sleds, even back in the late 90's when they were new. I almost got what I paid for my 97 Summit, when I sold it in 2000. So my question would be...... What is your point??? Just sayin............

Skidoo may cost a bit more but at least you get to ride all year! I tried to save money and got to ride till January. As for the good resale that's just a bonus!

buying a used polaris is like buying a used black bic lighter.....you'll never know just how long before it dies and you have to throw it away

Maybe these guys just need quick money for bad habits or hard times not necessarily a knock on the sled. Sometimes you Ski doo guys have big egos and fat heads.

Your barking up the wrong tree shoveler. Just putting in a plug for a friend. Now carry on.

Guys that get a brand new sled put like 500 or even 1000k in a season and then just have to have a new sled for the next year crack me up,, sepecially the ones that are upset they take a hit on resale... If all you do is ride a sled once and then sell it to me it instantly looses 2g in value,, You ride it 1000k and its worth way less(to me) If im paying new price I want a new sled.

I have an idea,, ride the sled a little longer and get your money out of it?
