Could the doo sales be stronger in Canada, and Poo sales be stronger in 'MERICA because of national pride?

I mean, the yanks haven't even adopted the Robertson screw for this very fact..

Probably, some truth to that

Who's number one can be debated till the cows come home but more sleds than Cat and Skidoo combined? I have going to have to see industry documentation before I buy into that. In all fairness to you a lot of magazines make up stuff as they go along. Advertising dollars sway a lot of opinion whether its Doo, Poo or Cat.


Do you really think that Snowest, Snow Tech or any other magazine is going to publish false statements to increase advertising revenue?
If they were to do that the revenue from the other manufacturers would shrink in no time. In early 2012 Snow Tech stated that Polaris sold more 2011 Pro's than all other sleds combined, pretty bold statement if it's not true.

Yep, before the XM, in the Oct. 2014 issue of Snowest they said the Pro was still the top seller, maybe they are all lying.
Do they overall model numbers, or this year? You can twist stats to say pretty much anything you want it to. The pro has 2 more years on the market than the XM, and an extra year on the ProClimb chassis, so overall numbers they could be correct. Just saying you can't believe everything in journalism.

Just like Ford.

Best selling truck is the F series. But that also includes everything from F150 through super duty F750 where as GM and Dodge do not include their entire line with its pickups. It just skews what Fords truck sales really are.

I do believe there are a lot of Pro's being sold East of the mountains likely more than XM summits. Blame it on good marketing and 509 videos.

Yes, I think Snowest would publish false statements to increase advertising revenue. They implemented member subscriptions in order to increase their revenue. It's more of a business than a community.

I find Ski-Doo sellers are less likely to budge on their price than Poo sellers.
