Hey litlracr, check out "sledswap.com" there are hundreds of sleds on there and it lets you break down by models too. Many are newer, but ya never know this time of year. Good Luck. If nothing else, I might be selling a Polaris Indy Trail but I really haven't decided that yet. Where in WI are you?

If I was you ..keep your eyes peeled for a deal ,but if you wait till fall you could find a better deal. Due to people getting new sleds they tend to sell some newer models for a cheaper price to get out of them. For a few hundred more you could find a nice newer sled. This will give you time to save more over the summer too.
Your going to want something with a newer suspention and oil injected. This will make your investment alot better and give you a better experiance of playing in the snow.
I would look for something in the late 90's and up . You could find a 00 or 01 zx chassi doo in the 1200- 1800 range and have some of the newer goodies , not to mention parts advalibillty.
Around here in MI, I seen 03-04 revs go for 2500. just dont buy the 1st thing you see , shop around you have all summer before the snow returns, your season is about over and it hurts to wait all summer to ride it. I know I did when I bought my leftover 05 rev in june , the longest 6mo's I had to live through! I washed and polish that thing more than mowing grass that summer!

good luck , Im sure if you touch base here before you buy you would be steered in the right direction on a choice that you find .
