Did you get the 600 or 700? Either way they are both awesome!

Its the first year when they made just a few of the limited build black 700's. Ya, another 'first year' venture but some friends have them and they rock - just like vintage Polaris - the limited builds are always faster than the full production ones. A friend of mine races very competitively and his and any other 2008 couldnt hold a candle to his 2007!

Yeah haven't heard of much problems for those. I think the only real recall is the fuel evaporator thing to try help the slight hesitation when the throttle is chopped. They were quick that's for sure, 140 hp for a 700 twin is sweet. Might give my SRX a run!

hi guys,
the inboard boats aren't that bad to service. the newer boats give you alot more access to the engine compartment. than some of the older ones. not that i have worked on a few! or anything like that! but i have owned a few in my day and had to work on them as well. and drive them for a little while! to bad Ford doesn't make one with a power stroke in it , or a V10 in a 19' boat i think it would get on plane quick!
and that my opinion but i could be wrong!

Im with sherm though, Id take a mild winter with lots of snow. I dont know what it is about clearing snow with my backhoe that relaxes me so much, but man I enjoy doing that.
Would love to get a quad with a blade like sherm has too, but this year the hoe and the little case with a blade will have to do!

In my yard with all the buildings the Bobcat works totally awesome though I`d still like to make a wide front blade for it.
... that would do it for me!!

Morris Ive moved snow with a bobcat lots when I was in PA, and I loved it! It was smaller and took longer the the hoe, but nothing can beat the turning on icy/snowy conditions like a bobcat, so much fun!
Gonna get one someday, they are just a really neat handy machine.
