went to the polaris dealer like 30 mins from where i live today with my mom and brother and talked to my cousin who works there and was talking about the 550 xp and were doing a trade in and then we decided we were going to get a 550 with power steering and then started that up and liked it and shortly after that we started looking at the other 550's and then they had a 850 sitting there the sparky looking red one there with no power steering and then we started to look at that for a while and then like after 10 mins of talking about it and looking at it lol we finally started it up holy crap i love the sound lol going back in 4 days to get it

 

What was the price diff between the two?

My dealer quoted me about 1k difference. I figure why NOT spring for the 850?

R'

 

The 850s note is pretty awesome. The rumble sounds like a street bike, not an ATV.

 

the difference was about $1400 to go to the 850

 

Congrats on your new XP 850!

I pick mine up this coming Saturday! XP 850 in Sunset Red!

LOL I had my machine since January and it hasn't been dirty yet, but I hope to change that Memorial Day Weekend

 

Mine's been out on the sled trails quite a bit, and has been encased in mud lately, but that's by destroying my own 3 acres.

End of May seems a bit too conservative around southern Maine. Trails were ready first week in May IMO. But then again, I don't own the land, so MO doesn't matter all that much. -Just wish they were open
