Pro vs. assault

[BigT]

What are the main differences? Which do I want? Dealer telling me that the assault is a better option because of wider stance and higher clearance. Thoughts?
I was leaning toward a pro or SKS. Hadn't thought about an assault. Now I figure I need more info.

Do a search there is a ton of info on this topic, including pics and information and reviews on both of these sleds.

Depends on what you are doing with it

Are you talking RMK Assault or Switchback Assault?

For what it's worth I was in the same spot last year, what to buy? PRO RMK, Assault, or SKS.
I bought the Assault mainly for the more robust suspension. I planned on narrowing it up with ZRP spindles, but they are not available for the Assault yet.
In hindsight I wish I had gone with the SKS. It's a bit heavier but it has the narrower front end and most importantly it has an additional cooler that would be a great on icy days. I spent a couple days last year packing ice on the tunnel to keep the Assault cool.
Having said that, they are all 3 great!
