Agree, the best course of action is a lot of time, the simplest. 8g is even better considering the miles you had on it, but warranty is warranty and you just happen to be one that gets good use out of your machine.
Many do, but many don't. Your 2k in 2 years vs my 800miles in 6 years. (To be fair, I'm mostly riding the snowbike, but both machines combined don't have 2k miles in 6 years.)
If I bought something with warranty, the mfg would make money on me. Why should they try to hide you and not lose money on you?
Bottom line, you're happy and good deal, but big companies don't know how the f to handle things.
You'd have probably helped skidoo sell a pile more sleds if they had just made it right on day 1, said "Here's a new G4, 154 whatever, sorry it's not the same color, but obviously we can't fix your melted heap. Have a nice winter sir..."
You'd have bragged up how awesome BRC is to work with and every dude who's having a warranty issue would think "maybe I should get a skidoo."
