There is an awful lot of Cats around here, but they tend to stick together for protection. Really though, alot of it comes down to the dealers in town, and the Cat dealer here is pretty good. The polaris dealer is pretty good to, and he drives a ford too

 

As far as stock mountain sleds go, all the big makers seem to have their time building the best MTN sled, then get surpassed by someone else.

And every single sled made has its weak point(s).
I work on them all and see them.
Some are easy to fix, some hard and costly to fix.

Some sleds are total blunders, and ruin a makers rep for years, until they can regain the consumers trust.

Take the Poo 900 of a few years back, what a pile of crap it was....Yet up until then Poo built a decent sled.
Now they are slowly making a comeback, but this years 800 dragon is having motors blowing up prematurely, and they need to fix it ASAP before it ruins them again.

They all have issues, and we all have brand preferances somewhat.

I choose Cat myself, but have owned doo/yami/and poo in the past to.

Any day in the steep and deep is a good day !
