Hey SW Peeps:
Helping a friend who works for the Forest Service. They are looking to buy a snowmobile that will be used to pull trailers with gear and even a groomer used to make cross country ski routes. This could be slow hard pulls in fresh powder at times. They have budget to get about anything, but if they come in under budget they can use the remainder to buy oil, belts, accessories and stuff like that. If a less expensive sled will do just fine then they would buy extra gear, but getting the right sled is the priority.
Local dealers have quoted the following.
1. 09 Ski-Doo Skandic SUV 550F
2. 09 Yamaha RS Viking Professional
3. 09 Polaris Wide Trax LX
Any opinions on any of the above or maybe something other than these 3. The sled will be operated locally here in NE Washington at 3000-6000 ft elevation. Any experience/opinions on fan vs liquid cooled in this application.
Thought someone here might have some experience with the work horse type sleds. Thanks in advance. EW
