My son in law works for Textron (aviation) and 3 weeks ago Cat had 175 unsold sleds of multiple model years to get out of the system and now they are under 30 to sell, mostly mountain sleds. Once those are sold supposedly the release is happening. Good on them for clearing out the inventory first and not dumping on the dealers. They havent been at any of the early season shows so far it sounds like... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dealer I traded my 12 freeride in at sat on it for 2 years rather than just blowing it out. Many car dealer would have dumped that within 60 days at the most. I bought my daughters car from a dealer i know at day 45 sends every used car not sold to auction. Just before that date I paid them a few hundy over what they had into it on paper which was better than they were going to do at auction.

He had a chance at 2019 ZR 800 129’s for $7200 but those sold in matter of hours. This was inside the company sales. One that stood out now was a 17’ M 600 for $5800. Not sure on track length.

Zr8000 right now in canada for 9500 600 for 8k 3000 for 7k they are dirt cheap. And there are lots of them. They discounted the 18s like that last year and many of those are still at dealers. Cat is finally getting smart. Having 30% off a leftover makes it hard to sell an identical new model for full pop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodtick Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 It seems the gay crowd is getting out of sledding and buying Subaru ‘s and cross country skiing? Ski Doo is going to have a hard time being #1 in sales? There are only so many guys with short dicks that want the 850 with bold new graphics?

Every other word was “reliable”. My buddies 2018 broke this and sucked it right down into the water jacket. Engine #2!!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
