ToggleYou're planning to begin snowmobiling? You already practice snowmobiling but it is time to have a more recent toy? Here is the result of my researches about Arctic Cat and their most interesting models.
Let’s start with the Mountain models. Since a few years now, this category attracts more fans and Arctic Cat is among favorite manufacturers for this market. The M8 model of 2010-2013 are very popular.

If you are looking for a Crossover model, you could choose a Crossfire of 2008-2011. aIt offers very good performances on trails as well as in places never visited by club volunteers.

Touring:
To you, snowmobiling means quiet ride, 3-day adventure and greatest comfort? Then, you are fan of Touring. For 4 000 to 7 000 $, you could travel on a TZ1. This snowmobile with a 4-stroke engine of 1100cc is fully equipped and our team has been delighted by it during their tests.

Sport category :
In this category, in chronological order, we find the famous F8 of 2008 to 2011. You can get it for 4 000 to 6 500 $. It seems to be a wide range of cost; it is because some vehicles have over 20 000 km! Despite that, with a good mechanical inspection, we can find a reliable machine in good condition. https://www.sledmagazine.com/actions/showGuide?id=63&request_locale=en

Finally, it seems that the frenzy of a season beginning is very important this year. Customers started to check with their dealer as early as in August! As it often happens, snow can fall early some times. We had nice seasons during the last years and we wish for the same in 2016!
Thanks to Michel, owner of Pulsion Suzuki, Arctic Cat dealer in Drummondville area. With the informations he gave me, I got a better picture of the pre-owned market.
Of course, Pulsion Suzuki also has many new snowmobiles in stock… a new snowmobile is very nice!
