Thinksnow, I can handle a TM1200.
The turbo'd Yami is just foreplay compared to the TM1200.
But do I need all that is the question? I may want all that, but last I checked, I had not won the lottery yet. I have Brad Story's number saved on my phone so when I win, he will be one of the first that I call.
I want a good all around sled that is nice to my back on the groomer forsaken trails and will get me where I want to go in the deep powder and up the mountains that we climb. I need to be able to continue to ride with the guys and have fun. Don't want to be stuck and I want something that is easy to sidehill with.

but the joy keeps on giving!!!
oh, and buy whatever you want, it will not get any better from here on out
except the fun!!!
That is awesome MT Dream. I have pics like that. The times are irreplaceable. Honestly it does not get any better. Kids are truely great. My gorgous daughter came home for T-day to surprise me and I went to Billings. She just showed up at my door tonight. They make you laugh and cry and they hold your heart.
But I still enjoy giving Brent a bad time. Come on, it was too good to pass up.

We all have to ride the trails to get where we want to, and I LOVE my 09 XP for that reason. Best sled bar none as far as going down the trail, I absolutely love it!!!!
XPs climb very well, but take a little more effort to sidehill and aren't as nimble as the M sleds. I think the 09 M8 is an awesome sled as well. I wen't with a 154 and it does just fine in the deep and steep.
All that being said, I had to pick up a M1000 turbo!
Love the power and I like the M chassis for manuverablity.BUT, for trails, you'll love the XP.

Ya, I barely cracked the throttle climbing with it, but then I pinned it on that straight relatively flat section and flew off that little bump like it was a huge jump. It was hard to see anything because my helmet was pulled back so damn far that the piece in front of my mouth was over my eyes and I was starting to choke. Ya, I want that kind of power, but I don't need that kind of power.
Jason's turbo'd Apex was only foreplay for riding the real thing. Holy smokes Batman, I went faster than Superman.

I took the plunge and jumped to the Cat ship.
2010 Arctic Cat M8 162 Sno Pro
I pick her up tomorrow from Castle Mountain Sports in White Sulpher Springs. I can't wait to pet my new kitty.
Our banker was like "Your really quite for getting a new sled" to my husband and I looked at her and said, "It is for me" MEMEMEMEMEME
And if I do not like it and do not learn to like it, then he can have it and I will buy something else. But I rode a demo and liked it. If you could meld the doo and the M8 it would be incredible, but physics do not allow you to have everything in one package.
I want to thank Castle Mountain Sports for taking us out for a day on their demos. They are really awesome.
And thank you to Dave Schell for letting me ride his Skidoo for a day. Setup on it was unreal and he is definitely beyond great.
I am definitely going to have a funtastic New Year.

Good for you!!
Let me know how you like it as I'm leaning towards a new M8 when I purchase my next sled.

Well the sled and I are both getting broke in. She is definitely not a trail sled. I need new skis and it will take some time to get the suspension setup for me. I cannot believe the room in that little seat; maybe not the kitchen sink, but definitely the bathroom sink. She definitely responds well. I did like Schell's Doo as well, but found it difficult in the powder and technical riding, where I find my kitty just the opposite. Both are a definite riding style change. Doo was more stable, but I want to have fun.

I think an M8 would be a perfect sled for you.
I sure like mine ....
I think in hindsight I wish I'd have bought the M10, but keep in mind I weigh about 300-lbs ride weight too .... Even with that said however, I've been pretty impressed with how well this M8 carries me around.
