So if shipping was really a problem. Why not have dealer come and get them with a trailer. It was probably built in November completed in January.

Polaris wont let anyone other then the truckers pick sleds up at the factory, I know a few guys tried. Mine sat complete for a month waiting to be shipped, the dealer can look that info up.

Now would be a good time for Polaris to adjust the rules on who could pick sleds up.
Maybe the next email I get will blame the truckers along with the suppliers of course Polaris won’t be to blame for anything it’s an amazingly run company that just ran into unforeseen circumstances ?

Got the same email tonight for my Khaos Boost. Dealer said there's a shipment on their way but that they have no idea what sleds are on it lol... Shipping has been a nightmare.

Been riding my 2022 Expert Turbo 165 since December and it is great sled, but after 14 years on a DOO I am looking forward to trading it in on the 2022 Khaos BOOST when it finally arrives.

I really think that is a ****ty move on Polaris Corp. Not bending with the times shows how much they think of us.

Looking forward to the comparison of these two sleds. Have you tried Khaos boost? What about the Doo is not working for you?

Also curious on the doo comparison. Was dead set on a 23 boost but all these Polaris issues have me second guessing that. Especially if Doo comes out will something big.

The 2022 Expert Turbo is a great sled with very good power and handling in most conditions, the deeper the snow the better it works. Once the snow firms up or in marginal snow the Doo is harder to side hill than the Poo in my opinion. This is based on riding my step sons 2021 KHAOS 155 as I have come to appreciate the difference between the Poo and Doo handling characteristics, one is not necessarily better than the other. So as my riding progresses I want to ride a Poo for a while.

Probably a contractual issue and a teamsters union thing....
Poo's liability lawyers and dealers would be screaming, for different reasons. Also, dealers take legal ownership of the unit before selling to you. Only OEM units ever seen sold direct are test and R&D sleds, of all brands (they buy or trade each others sleds to reverse engineer and test against them), no warranties, liability waiver, some as salvage, etc. Employees and their friends are where they go, AC, Poo and Y (when they actually built and tested their own stuff).
