well heres the story
I have been lurking over here for about 2 years
humming and hawing about the Nytro
those of you who have also converted from a REV to a Nytro may recognize me from the other side..shhh....
anyways........
-I live in Saskatchewan
-I ride out west approx. 1-2 times per year
-Like to freeride, boondock, bust pow..whatever
-Hillclimbing is NOT my thing, but obviously you need to climb some to find some good areas
-I ride between 4500-7500 out west and 1800 ft here
-don't really ride trails here , as I like to find deep fields and small hills to climb (when applicable) and some ditch bangin
-tired of doo's crap - Im always fixing something, tired of 2 stroke sleds
-the time has come for change
my dilemma..I have a few!! hahah!
XTX w a backcountry track (1.75" lugs) or MTX 153
also, what year and new or used??
tonne of 08's for sale in the $7500-8200CDN range for an 08 MTX
a new 09 MTX 153 for $10,000 + 10% tax
or a used 09 XTX for about $8700-9200 depending on upgrades
my sled is paid for, zero pymnts...I like this
don't really want or have too much room for upgrades/mods in season 1 w the Nytro
not sure how much time I will have to hit the hills next year, as my wife is 3 months preggers w baby 2 and im doin everything I can to even get 800 miles in next year!! hahah
I am expecting to get approx. $7k for my Summit
so I have to add a few $$ if i buy used, otherwise finance the rest on a new one (finance approx. 4k)
so.....there is a bunch of fully loaded questions for you
hope you can help convert a guy from doo to blue
thanks for your time

Haven't checked but if you haven't post this on the Mt side also. What I have heard the later mtx's may be better or they may give you ideas on updating an 08 or 09. I love my 144 inch backcountry but I haven't been out west with it. hope this helps a little.

-Arctic FX graphics
-1.35 cobra track
-ulmer oilite front end bushings
-better boards

Love the XTX but would never ride a DOODOO so cant compare! But I go out West once or twice a year too and the XTX did OK! Went where everone else did but obviously isn't a highmarker. The scummits are but they can also leave ya hangin when you blow a belt in a spot other sleds cant get ya out and ya forgot your belt changer tool! Happened to buddy last year! Just got the Turbo on and am waitin for March to come as we'l be in Revy then and maybe now the HighmarKING! LOL. Turbo Hill here I come! NOT

Shipped Jan. 20th. Just cleared Canadian customs yesterday. Sat in customs for 5 days???? What in the heck were they doing with them???
I don't care for the customs department. Let me know how Revy works for you.
