A friend of mine is going to purchase a Polaris Diesel, he works in the bush allot and wants to use it for that.Does anyone have one and are they a tough machine that can work hard and keep going, seeing they are auto, you got to wonder. I recomend the Bombardier traxter lineup for working seeing they are geared lower, liquid, and have a great front end, and are heavy, oh ya and they have 2 spark plugs for better torque. Anyhow, is the diesel a good work horse!
Thanks

Diesel has no power at altitude. I would recomend the Magnum 500 RMK that is due soon, for heavy utility work.

The diesel is fine anywhere. I have two not to mention a diesel truck. I am also in the mountains. They have lots of torque and unlimited capabilities.
