ActionfigureJoe Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 The bigger question is….which is the next mfg to stop build sleds? Because of climate change, sled owners are dropping like flies. Who in their right mind would plunk down that kind of cash? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooooray They picked the Polaris overall.. seems like maybe fit and finish pushed it over the edge. Sounds like the doo handles the worst now. And said the doo is just kinda boring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching that I’m eager to try out a catalysthp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll be able to dial it in more yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least for Northern Wisconsin this is the first really poor year in a quite some time. They actually have had really good snow years going back to the early 2000's. 4 of the highest totals ever have been since 2010. https://www.weather.gov/grb/RecordBreakingSnowfallAcrossNorthernWisconsin Edited February 7 by Highmark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I’m ever at a point where I think Poo does anything better, I’ve been crippled, both mentally and physically and should leave the sport. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member EvilBird Posted February 7 Gold Member Share Posted February 7 Some Guys spend $80-100k on a truck nowadays. $15k-20k on a Sled big deal. I can get a leftover 850 Switchback right now for $13k . Thinking about it . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id be more incline to buy a brand new Sled before a brand new truck but thats just me I guess. But ya ive never bought a brand new Sled or Truck. Too many nice used ones that already took the hit.

The axys/matryx is by far the best chassis ever out on snow. It’s not even close. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notice how the glowing review they gave the catalysthp basically stated that everything they liked was because it was the exact opposite of the dumpster fire retard procross? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it starts winning on the tracks, I’ll pay more attention. Right now, the PC still stands as the dominating chassis. I don’t give two hot fucks about 40 feet of chop a sled can survive at moderate speeds with a woman like rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody gives a single fuck about procross and that has nothing to do with a trail sled and what makes a good chassis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
