Bontz Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Tough pill to swallow seeing $22K (at a minimum) to put it in the trailer, especially after the season we just had. And that's not even the Boost!! I know they're supposed to be absolutely awesome, but no way am I spending that kind of money. The manufacturers need a reality check on these things and what they cost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I can appreciate what the manufacturers are bringing to the table, I kinda wish customers would say F U and not snow check a single sled, strictly out of principle. These prices are out of control, sorry (and it's an industry problem, not just Polaris). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These prices are out of control, sorry (and it's an industry problem, not just Polaris). Text my dealer told him he should go talk to the sales rep and ask if Polaris lost their mind on pricing. Worst snow year in years, no incentives for repeat snow check customer's and prices have gone up. It's not going to be global warming that's going to kill the sport. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bontz Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 That's just it. The sport is already hurting with the average age of an owner being something like 50 years old. No way you're going to lure 20-something year olds into the sport with these prices. Sorry, but I sure as fuck ain't spending that kind of money at this point in my life,b and I'll convert to buying holdover models that are discounted heavily when they don't sell vs. snow checking.

Gold Member 800renegaderider Posted March 5 Gold Member Share Posted March 5 Prices are way too crazy for myself especially with the winters we’ve had the past couple years. I’m not a new buyer anyways I’ve wanted to just could never justify it. I will say considering how much more you get in these sleds than sleds from 25years ago the prices really aren’t that out of line. Top dog sled 25yrs ago was what 10k now it’s 22k but you get a 10x better sled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f7ben Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Polaris quality control and parts sourcing was fine precovid. Now it’s pretty poor. They need to get their shit together. They are making the best sleds in the market design wise but shit components are not fucking acceptable in a 15k sled. My buddy has bought 3 new poo sleds in the last 5 seasons and all 3 had clutch replacement under warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fucking PB80 performs as well or better than all these stupid ass new clutch designs and it’s routinely stands up to low boost 1200 application which would destroy the stock tra in an afternoon. How can a 50 year old design be lighter , stronger and better performing that everything these fucking faggots have come up with since? My bud is running the pb80 on his 850 etec after the stock clutch failed around 10,000 miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
