Pros n con's. Must be a polaris

I run the Polaris 550XP Sportsman Touring with power steering. Love it year around. Smaller then a Razr, so it fits into my toy hauler Ice Castle better Also, some trails have restrictions for width, and the Rzr can be really tight on those trails. I also go off the beaten path, and like the smaller machine, easier to toss my weight around when needed. Really depends on what you plan on using it for.

Regardless I would make sure it has Fuel Injection, and power steering. 2 Pieces that I would say are musts on any machine I own going forward.

Cons, the 550XP isn't as big as the Rzr and you straddle the machine. Some find this very uncomfortable and would rather sit in a seat like a car with a steering wheel. Protection is limited in the 550 vs the rzr. Rzr you can get a radio and other fun mods. Yes you can get these on the 550 as well, but not as practical. If you get a rzr stuck good, chances are you will need another rzr or 2 or 3 to get you out. They are big, and heavy, and suction down in the mud really good.

Basicly all really depends on how you plan on using it. I looked at both as well and settled with the 550XP. Very happy I did, and feel this was the best decision for my riding and use.

I think I know what you are looking for!

New- 550 IQ® LXT fan cooled. I would go with a fan for ice fishing and pulling portys.

I was thinking 2 up ATV I guess 2-up could mean snowmobile as well. I guess we need more details

Polaris's are nice but Cat's seem to work just as well! I can swing either way!

That top picture is from about 4 years ago before Climate change! Oh and when you could still get some Perch on Mille Lacs! The bottom one is Mille Lacs last weekend. No keepers!

It just looks like you catch more fish if you ride a Polaris!

Ok guys I meant a 2 up snowmobile by Polaris. It has to be a Polaris. I like the IQ and the wide track wich I think was the adventure?

[LoonASea]

But, still new or used?

[Northlander]

Has to be new as well.

Has to be new as well.

Ok, because that makes a difference on some the models available. Since the year started out so slow with snow there are some good deals on hardly used newer ones out there as well.

Example: $5300

2012 Polaris IQ LXT 550 Two up snowmobile. Sled is in great with only 300 miles on it. Has electric start with good battery, reverse (perc), mirrors, 2 up seat, tow hitch, and matching Polaris cover. Just serviced at Polaris dealer and ready to go. On the (List)

No sure how much you want to put out but a New 2015 Widetrack is a few bills!

Year 2015 Manufacturer Polaris Industries

Model 600 IQ® WideTrak

Style Utility

MSRP* $ 11,599.00

think was the adventure?

The last time I dream shopped at the dealer, that one caught my eye too.

[minneman]

if I was spending big bucks for new, Id go with the 600 swichback assult 144.

get an add on rack and hitch, and if you really need it to haul 2 get the voyager seat kit.

that gives you a good work horse and a great on off trail ride

[LightningBG]

Some type of sponsorship or employee deal? Seeing as it has to be new and Polaris, I'd just see if they can throw in a tow strap as well.

I got a 2015 polaris 600 IQ wide track it works great for ice fishing. The wide tracks won't run hot if get in low snow conditions or pull a ice house slow any other newer polaris other than a fan will get hot if you have to go slow or run into low snow. Mine will be for sale end of march around 4000 less than new.

[Wanderer]

That sure is a nice looking machine.
