krom Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 This is nothing new for brp, or poo. They will come out with a program offering extended flooring*, and rebates* *(see terms and conditions for details) The big question: What is textron going to do? They have been adamant that there will be no rebates, and no extended flooring. (there really shoudn't be that many units in the field anyway, @ZR6000RR knows for a fact they sold out). But when 25's don't sell on the pre-season (btw they went from doing an extra order period because of worried about selling out too fast, to extending the order period a couple of more weeks) are they going to push dealers for big orders without extending flooring? Threaten to cancel those who don't place a big enough order, or ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate sales spiffs because they are a pain in the ass to deal with and most dealer owners won’t let their people claim them.

I know the local Doo dealer, who sells a ton of sleds and dirt product, told ski doo they don’t care if they drop them but they’re not taking in any more unsold units right now. They’re sitting on 7500 a month in floor plan they would normally be sold out of and BRP is trying to force another 20-30 units on them by the end of the month. As surprising as it is to say, it’s a good time to be a Cat dealer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
