Mid Range Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) After 20 years with the same dealer (Yamaha/Polaris) Divorce happened Friday the 13th ..... I just snowchecked a BRP Renegade X 600 e-tec. A scenario that wouldn’t have been possible years ago (Me riding a ski-doo) specially in the 90’s.But I honestly believe now on that BRP is leading the world of snowmobiling.I used to be a Hardcore fan of Polaris but Ithink these guys are on the down slope.No brand bashing intended.

davemod04 Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 being loyal to a dealer that treats you well is important, but the money you spend for your equipment is important as well. we spend a lot of time traveling many miles of parts of the world many people will never see. our comfort level during those travels and the pleasure we get from the ride comes in large part from the equipment we are sitting on. it's hard to beat the ride, handling, and fun factor of current skidoo sleds. in Quebec, it is also pretty hard to beat the level of customer support from the many skidoo dealers located throughout the region. good luck with your new skidoo- it is a great sled for sure.

iceman Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) Good Luck with her. I agree totally on the Polaris going down A Doo is better then any Polaris. Just not as reliable as the Yammie though. Bravo for making the move. I was a Polaris guy but got to know too many dealers and was tired of the Junk.

Andyman Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Ok now that Eric and Ray have told the truth so will I. I had a Polaris as well it was a 1968 Mustang with a huge white gas tank on the rear made of plastic that had a big crack in the top and leaked nonstop and a big chrome grill on the front that held the headlight and it would swing up after you took a bolt out! There now I said it!!! LOL Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
