Polaris: Currently #3 in sled sales. They worked hard to get that far...down...

One word of warning to others: Fusion.

But, Duane's XCR's aren't bad sleds really, espically the racer 440. However, as much as I would love to pick on Paul, I like Cat's and race Cats. It took the industry amost 20 years to accept the inevitable A-arm front end.

I will give the REV lots of credit too. If I wasn't on a Cat, it would be Rev. But, after riding that new F1000 this past weekend, I have renewed faith in Cat's new line up. MEeeeOWWWW!

Your completely correct Joe. As much as I like my Polaris sleds, I am not too crazy about what they are building now. I call it the "CONFUSION". I feel like that sled was the beginning of the end. If I were going to plunk down $8 grand I think I would honestly buy a Arctic Cat. They just look better and have kept the "TRAIL RIDER" parts in place. Better wind protection, room to store things, adjustable everything. Duane

Paul, I've got a real fast and long knife. I'd rather have another Deere over a new sled anyway

I started this post and I will stop it here. Before this gets out of hand.

Anyone been fishing before??? Most of you have and how many of you have been taken fishing somewhere?? Most of you have also.

You all have been taken fishing here on the post and my hook was set and me and Duane reeled you guys in... :lol:


This post was planned by me and Duane sipping cocktails in Horicon at Wanies bar. We are true friends but I see others are now starting to respond and take offense. Have a great day guys!! It was fun Duane!!

Seriously everyone, Paul is telling the truth. I have nothing against Arctic Cats and vise-versa. We are great friends and just kidding around. It looked like it could get ugly so here it ends. Lets talk Deere. Duane :lol: :lol:

Paul and Duane, assume that most of us knew that! Ok, or at least know that I knew...I think...

Later Liquidator!
