I do have an xp 800 and like it. I just think its going to depend on what you are looking to do. I sat on a new rush and thought it felt good but no protection from the wind. I can tell you my next snowmobile will be an Apex xtx or a 4tec skidoo renegade. I just like the idea of no more oil usage. But if you are going off trail it would be an 800 etec renegade for me. But just a trail rider.
 
i haven't had a chance to ride a rush yet, I'm sure its sweet. But until it gets direct injection like my 600 etec gade, theres no comparison. I'm not a poo hater, I own a 600 cfi IQ touring too. I like my poo, but the etec engines put doo in a class by themselves.

So you wanna be a flamer like the other 2 monkeys that have matching sleds???

If you get a white xp, you 3 are gonna look like the 3 stooges going down the trail. Go get a artic cat or somethin'

Its a easy one ..If you want dependable sled that you can count on.... anything e-tec If you read any reviews on these sleds there not a whole lot to complain on a Doo? other then wind protection!! If its a polaris 600 rush i would give you a thumps up! Rad design great motor Nice trail machine.... off trail not so much. Polaris 800 motors are still unproven with lots of problems to many pissed off people with problems on brand new sleds... They may have it fixed on the 2011's but lets see how this season plays out? As we speak my buddies 09 Assault 800 is in getting fixed... And he is not happy

I guess I am the guinea pig for the new 600 etech. So far so good 50 miles and all is well. The throttle response is incredible and it eats rutted out trails far better than my 2002 edge. At first I thought I bit off more than I could chew and was second guessing passing on the f-8 sno pro or the 800 iq. All these worries quickly went away in the first 10 miles. I will share more details as I pass the break in period. The only way to describe the sled so far is that it is a blast to ride. I also figured out why you see so many people standing on these sleds. The only way to describe it is that the distance from the seated to standing position is very small and you can make adjustments fast. The way they have this sled set up I found myself enjoying standing up and felt safe in this position.
