I cant comment yet but those I was working with would trade silver for red any day.

As an admin, i need to be a littlebit careful to state my mind, but give the 600 polar a try before you discard the 600 modell Ryan .... there is a huge difference between the standard and the polar, and given the correct circumstances, i assume the 600 standard will die, and the polar version will become the standard in the future! I love my 600 polar, but i would really wish i could have combined the park and the polar.... In other words, a 600 polar park! Need to go undercover and do some lobbying :)

2 friends of mine had to use a 600 at mammoth and heavenly and they both hated them too heavy, the snowtronics system would always have to be re-booted because it crashed and a huge gas guzzler. I'll take a prinoth BR 350 or Bison/Bison X over any other snow Groomer out there

Well... it sounds to me that they have the first generation of 600, and as usual, the first generation of a product is not perfect! .... This is for example valid for LH500 (electronic problems), Bison/Bison X (electronic problems), 600 (cam valves/electronics)... I can continue until the first machine where everything was based on advanced electronic.... Dont you have massive snowfalls in Crested Butte, Ryan? My feeling of the Bison in massive snowdepths is kind a like drowning in the snow!...... Around 50 cm of powder, and the undercarriage of the Bison /350, is too short to be on top of the snow!... On hard surface - no problems.... :) BUT as allways on this forum, i will strongly advice everybody to have their own opinions based on own experience! It would be like hell if everybody should have an opinion without actually have driven the machine themself :)... Try the 600, Leitwolf, Everest etc. and then give your opinion! All of the machines are great, but they have different ups and downs! If it is a Prinoth or a Pisten Bully or a Bombardier doesnt matter to me as long as you got the job done, and the result is perfect!

They are a little short but I've never got the feeling I'm "drowning" in snow though And yes we do have lots of snow but I've never had a problem getting through it with my bison x. And ESP with the Sherpa winch that cat can go anywhere and do anything you need.

All I can say is that I thank God for my PB600.

And I thank God for my 600 polar :) I have driven both with sticks and with steering wheel, but i prefer the steering wheel.... Better control i think :)

That's right Ole, they all have their good and bad points.
