Are you saying nobody will hold your hand if you ride a Doo?
Little defensive are we. When is the last time you rode in the mountains and had cell service.

lol, nope, just look at what you post, its amusing.
How did guys get around on the mountain in the past is a deep mystery I spose. I don’t need cell service when I am in the backcountry, never did before, and don’t need it for the big gauge. The navigation works good.
I also know where cell service is on some of the mountains I ride on when I need to use my phone.
I also carry other satellite communication devices. The 10.25” gauge on my sled is a perfect addition to my gear I already carry, and I don’t need cell service to use the Go app to use the navigation on my gauge it work good.

I carry garmin in reach mini also.
and yea I downloaded the maps on the go app, so it doesn't "need" cell service for navigation, but I still have to plug my phone into the gauge which I cannot stand.
I don't want my phone plugged in to use a map, I want the gauge to have the maps and GPS chip standalone. ( and buddy tracking without my phone )
I want my phone only for making phone calls if I have service, nothing else.

Nope don’t need it. Im a big boy and can figure thing out with out but buddy tracking.
I could give a crap less if my phone has to be plugged in to use the app, it just so happens when I want to use my phone it’s warm and fully charged…..geez that sucks. It also sucks that I can look at my phone at the end of the day headed down the hill in the pickup and see where I had been and where I may want to go tomorrow.
yea that's fine, but it shouldn't be a requirement. Its not a requirement with Trail Tech/Polaris. or Garmin/Cat.
Its also not a requirement in my Ford truck to have to plug my phone in to do anything.
Sounds like you should get a Polaris
The perfect answer to end any heated conversation. LOL I'm going to try that with my wife
Better yet just get a game console and play snowmobile games

Being 3rd year of the G5 we might get a glimpse of the changes for the G6 chassis. Doo likes to give tidbits halfway through a chassis cycle.

Care to SPECULATE on what one of those HINTS might be??
I heard they are upgrading to a 3 piece driveshaft! ..............Na, just kidding, I know you are really looking for cell free buddy tracking. I hope it comes. Maybe SkiDoo can show Polaris how to hold a clutch on to the motor in exchange for the 7S display?Care to SPECULATE on what one of those HINTS might be??
I do NOT think we are going to get Buddy Tracking that doesn't require cellular service just yet..
But I DO think we are in for a major upgrade in the mapping system, and I HOPE that will be CELL PHONE FREE.
If not maybe they'll give you all a tit to suck onI do NOT think we are going to get Buddy Tracking that doesn't require cellular service just yet..
