Rod Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Priced both. The tcat with QS3’s and APS is only $1300 cheaper than Mach Z both have ugly colours but the Mach is an ugly XP motor and power and clutching to the cat no question mach has nifty suspension and nice gauge Mach may hold value better being one year only mach 3? Year warranty and cat is 2 cats pricing is no longer lucrative answer may be a used T cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anler Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 So basically you get about $5000 more tech for only $1300 more for the mach. Easy choice. If you are a meathead who cant ride and just wants to go over 100mph until you slam into a tree then get the tcats and save $1300. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doo900t Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I had a Sidewinder for two seasons and the engine was awesome. The rest of the sled was poorly designed and the quality was garbage. I won't ever buy anything designed and built by Cat again. What you need to ask yourself is what will that Thundercat be worth when Cat goes belly up? Will the 1300 bucks you saved be enough from making you puke? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace's trolling threads don't really deserve actual user experiences, feedback, knowledge or logic. Something bad happened in his past that manifests itself in his posts. Perhaps he was cornered by some dude dressed in Doo leathers. A Doo salesman that would not go out on a date or a close friend and Doo rider that made fun of his ditch pickle. Nobody will ever know, nor wants to know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
