It's kind of hard to decide until every sled company has shown the 2012 models. But here's an interesting side thought. At what cost per gallon of gas does sledding or any other motorized recreation become too expensive? With all the new turmoil in the middle east having an immediate upward effect on gas prices, some are already predicting $5 (or more) per gallon. Do we want to drop $12,000 on a toy that we can't afford to fuel? And you also have to add the fuel costs of trailering hundreds of miles to the mountains.
I know it's a bummer, but you have to wonder.:face-icon-small-dis

I have alot of expensive hobbys, snowmobiling, fourwheeling, bowhunting, golfing, hockey, oh by the way I drive a gas guzzler I work hard so I can play harder. Just remeber you have to pay to play 8]-

When this thread started I had recently bought a Doo, then bought a Pro, and my '12 Pro will be in before the end of the month. Sure didn't expect to buy 3 sleds in 8 months.

Well - from the looks of things, if Polaris didn't figure out their 800 motors there are going to be a lot of upset people on the forum!!!

Outselling Cat, Doo and Yamaha combined!!! Impressive considering the sample size!!

Hello, I`m not buying a sled for next season can`t really afford a new sled, But if I could I would switch to the Polaris 800 Pro Rmk 155 I ride a Rev now. but if I financially could afford a new one this would be the one I would definetly go with.

I put money down on a 163 pro, but in the end I changed my mind and went with the 163 Skidoo X. Sure hoping I made the right decision, Time will tell.

I labeled you once!

SO if you have the means to buy a new sled and sign on the dotted line, you are considered a poser?

I had a 99' SummitX that I kept for almost 12 years, and it is time to move up to newer technology,,,,,,,,,,,,,, but I would hate to be labeled a "poser" LOL

I wonder if I'll ever get wheeled of these threads??????:wine::wine::wine::wine::wine::wine::faint:

Just bought a 12 pro 163 amazing sled. Think I'll snow check a 13 and see which one I prefer. Did something's this last weekend I don't believe I've ever done in 25 years of riding. Was well worth the money.
