Bought a left over 2017 Viper Ltx Le
Spring ordered 2019 Ski Doo Grand Touring Limited 900ACE...No need for the turbo, very satisfied with the 2017 that I traded in. Still having some concerns with the non-adjustable backrest, waiting to see what Ski Doo is going to do about this engineering overlook over the summer.

Give it about 10-12 years and I'll tell you what 2019 model I bought. By then the price will be down to where I can afford one!
Yes I ordered the 850. I traded my 800 Axys Switchback and sold my 800 RMK 155. It will be nice to have 1 sled for flatland & mountains!
Was contemplating selling my 2017 Assault for the new 850 Assault but I want to see how it stacks up to a 850 ski doo. If there almost no difference I might end up getting a used 850 backcountry or waiting another year for a 19 850 Assault. Can't swing a brand new sled right now.
Not many responses, either people are offline for the summer or people are keeping what they have.
Polaris closed out 19 pre-orders last week and Doo the end of this week.
I did something I have not done in 10 years, I bought a leftover at the end of the season (last fall I bought a leftover 17 in October) from this years stock (18 850 Renegade) and plan to keep it all summer. it is an experiment to see if it was better to buy a leftover at end of season or pre-season. I can't imagine this sled being cheaper in the fall or even if there will be any available.
Strangely enough, I also was able to ride the U.P. last say of March (never did that before) and on my local property April 4, 2018 as we had 8 inches in Green Bay yesterday.

Had a 2017 Switchback Assault 800 last 2 seasons which I really liked. In February while on a sled trip I ended up spur of the moment buying a demo 2018 Freeride 137 from Timberline. Got to ride it all of a 1/2 day the last day of our trip & then planned on making another trip in March to ride more & that never happened due to conditions being iffy. Needless to say I am anxious to put some miles on the Freeride this coming season so that will be my ride this next year but it is entirely possible I hop back over to a 850 Switchback Assault down the road. Options are good!
