    I feel like your personality adds so much value to your videos. You're a blue collar, normal dude with valid opinions. The fact that your not sponsored and have to censor what you say adds a lot of value to me, I'm sorry because being sponsored is great for you hahaha

    Snowmobiles are stacking up at dealers, the low snow year will have people scrambling to sell used sleds. Maybe the consumer will start to see a break on pricing.

      @@MuskokaFreerider I’m a doo guy that rides with and appreciates the value of all brands. Even if not true, I’d have guessed this would have played out as you’ve heard. Doo wants to own all their stuff from start to finish and while that has worked very well for them so far, they would be wise to make an exception here.. So sad as the radio frequency GPS stuff owned by Polaris seems easy to replicate but it clearly isn’t. The technology owned by Polaris can’t be replicated as it is proprietary. GPS in areas not covered by cell is the inherent problem in our sport that HAS BEEN solved with the rf frequency GPS overlay patented and owned by Polaris. Shot is soooo nice but it isn’t the life saver GPS tracking across brands would be. Rider tracker equates to saving lives not to mention so much time saved looking for lost riders. Skidoo would be very smart to do a tit for tat on this one. I’m currently using the Trail Tech but the screen is small and it isn’t an ideal interface on a doo, as you’re aware. I refuse to buy the Doo big screen as all I want is buddy tracking without cell service and it won’t do it. Until it tracks GPS off grid I’m out. The big screen currently represents one more thing to replace if smashed or broken without upside. I don’t care for its beauty unless it becomes a way to track I’ll never pay for it. I did snow check a 2025 btw and I own a 24 and owned a 23 and 22 as well.

      It’s ridiculous that it hasn’t happened yet, could imagine if avalanche beacons were like that? You have to buy the same brand as your buddy or you can’t detect his beacon. It’s a little more extreme, but still….

    It should be a legal requirement to have tracking cross brands. I mean it would be asinine to have Oxbow and other radios not talk to one another right? Also, the GPS tracking part has been on BRP‘s website for the last year to retrofit the 23s yet it hasn’t been for sale. I hope they get their act together to retrofit these as the phone app connectivity and crashing every other time you shut, the motor off is a big pain in the rear
