The rev chassis is good also. I would look for a 500ss 06-07, little better clutching and has the sc4 rear suspension, little better than the sc3. Those are probably in the $2500-4500 range.
I like Polaris but really will ride just about anything as long as there is snow. I am not into some of the hood designs on some of the older Artic Cats though.
