But one of those guesses is going to prove itself right in the end.
And no, I do not have any solid inside info that I can share.
For now, just enjoying the ride and watching to see who puts it all together first.

I haven't watched the Argo product line in about 30 years. Checking out their website, I'm kind of rooting for them to pull through.
My only take from the article is that they mention that “the best before spring event” that Cat hasnt cancelled. They obviously know more than they can say right now. Just like Christopher knows more than he can say right now. I am feeling more comfortable that Cat isnt done than I was before reading the article and comments similar to this one that Christopher has made since this whole thing started

One way or another, CAT still has a few more lives left.
This could be a crucial date. It would make sense to make an announcement when releasing the 2026 product. But in this day & age I don't know how you keep a lid on it with so many people needing to be in the loop? Someone would let it slip.My only take from the article is that they mention that “the best before spring event” that Cat hasnt cancelled. They obviously know more than they can say right now.

We are betting on it being Christopher!
that is exactly how the game is played
Well I did not buy it for $350. That much is known.
The trouble going in is going to be recruiting talent for production that left. Some left due to massive overtime in 2018 dirt product working 6 days a week for months. Others due to working Saturday as OT then the line going down on Monday or Tuesday due to no or bad parts.
The shift to supply chain based in Georgia and not using the tools for ordering made by arctic cat in their more generic software package caused a lot of issues. They started getting staffed up in purchasing back in trf, but some of those systems no longer were in place.
Hope a buyer has large money ready to commit after completing purchase to work on new product.

I wouldn't say 30 years. 2005-2011 Cats were great and held their own against the competition
