  1. Good point on the cooling ... the updated head and thermostat on the 2018+ was a nice improvement. That said, the "rush style" rear end and the way it's enclosed ... those sleds pretty much always ran cool (and definitely cooler than other brands in the same riding conditions).
  2. I had a 2016 Switchback, but it was in Pro-X trim .... absolutely loved that sled, and still ranks as one of my favorite Polaris sleds (behind my 2018 Assault). Nothing I can really add that hasn't already been said as it all comes down to how you ride & the shock setup. Ben is 100% right about the bogey wheels being garbage - see if you can find the solid wheels like the XCR has. The only real problem I had on my '16 was my electric start ring gear let go and grenaded my primary and oil reservoir. I know a few others had the same problem, but it was still pretty rare. Just check, in case it has e-start. Personally, I like the Switchback and/or Assault over the shorty. But everyone has their own preference.
  3. Did you not see the point about the corruption of it all? And leave it to you to bring a Trump into the conversation
  4. What does that have to do with anything in this thread???
  5. Actually, I think it's more of a case of many people with a brain have the attitude of WGAF. The libs on the other hand? Well, I don't think it has to be explained how important of a topic this is to them.
  6. In your brain? Yes, we already know that
  7. It was dead since Tuesday ... you were the one who felt compelled to quote yourself and resurrect it.
  8. Quoting yourself now? C'mon dude ... let the stupidity of this thread die!!
  9. OTB ... that's awesome (and true!)
  10. Well I guess the GOP'ers could pass another bill to eliminate even more college debt, force more "Green New Deal" bullshit, and give us Round #2 of the Inflation Reduction Act. That sure seems to be working really well for the Dems.
  11. Once ... just one time ... step away from your partisan hackery and honestly see & understand something. It doesn't take a blind loyalty to a party to look at Fetterman and see how he's completely unfit for office. And no, I'm not throwing support for Oz either. The people around Fetterman, pulling the puppet strings, should be ashamed of themselves. It's not just embarrassing, it's disgusting.
  12. This is how you get a person like Fetterman up for vote.
  13. There's no denying, the politics of the US have become, "Let's see how shitty of a candidate we can put forward, and have the people cast a vote for said person." It's just absurd. It's more than just Georgia that's screwed.
  14. Bontz replied to Doug's topic in Polaris
    Nice!!
  15. I'm so glad this site can rely on someone like @Mainecat to carry on the torch of dumbfuckery that 550 left behind.
  16. Good to hear they're looking at following the lead of Polaris and providing people an opportunity to ride them & (potentially) promote them
  17. Hey dumbass (that's you @Mainecat) .. it's called SECEDE, not succeed You should travel to TX some time and see just how many "fat white old racists" exist. Take a drive into Austin some time ... those are your folks.
  18. Me too! There's a reason Tim Walz was Wisconsin's "Business Man of the Year" during those lockdowns
  19. Tax dollars really well spent on that study. JFC ... no shit obesity has gone up. What do you expect when people sit in their freaking homes for over a year, and do nothing but wander from their living room, to the kitchen, and to bed.
  20. Bontz replied to Mag6240's topic in Current Events
    Yup - three in this house, too. It would be four, but the one kid has a couple more years to go before she can vote.
  21. I get that the shock will work, regardless of position ... but to 99% of us, it looks like shitty quality when a shock "appears" to be upside down. If it works either way, why not mount it the way most people expect it to be mounted? Then again, maybe most people don't even realize it in the first place
  22. Then why is the ZR mounted the right way?
  23. Same here in MN ... but that's expected in this blue/communist state. For every Republican ad (are there any Independents running?) ... there's probably 10-15 Democrat backed ads. It's fucking sickening. And to top all of it off our cunt of a Governor, Dictator Walz, doesn't even have the balls to do a live debate with his opponent.
  24. Same here ... although I will admit, I've been to Hay Days more than just one of the past 15 years. But the same applies there, with the internet deals being just as good, or better, and not worth the price of admission and parking for the in-person shows. The deals just ain't there any longer.
  25. Congrats on your sled being shipped @Doug (assuming it's true). I haven't had the heart to ask my dealer if they have any news on mine, just for the fact I'm new to them and I don't wanna be "that guy". If anything, I may contact them to ask about the fuel pump fix and if they secured a kit for my XCR ... and then maybe ask them if they've heard/seen anything on my XC.
