merganser Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I have the choice of either a 1997 polaris sportsman 500 4x4 or a 2003 arctic cat 400 4x4 for about the same price.I know both owners and the histories on both machines. The arctic cat was probably tlc'd a little more than the PoPo. Should I go for the newer cat or the more powerful polaris?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuleShack Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Just me, but i would go for the newer machine. Either one is over priced or one is under priced. if the 2003 AC is under priced you can always sell it for a profit and get something of better value to you. 6 years difference is quite a bit of use imo.

merganser Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 I went with the kitty. Thanks for the input. The one thing I liked about the polaris was the push button 4 wheel drive vs. the push/pull manual handle. The "newer" machine for the same price was the determining factor.
