I personally would go with the Can-Am. I have ridden one and it is a extremely nice and very capable machine.

Parts On Layaway Always Requires Intensive Service LOL

Get the Can-Am.

Duh. Get the Can Am. No contest.

Can Am has more balls than any other atv.

Well this is a no brainer! Friggin Can-am dude, there was a guy this weekend at the Just Add Dirt event and he wanted some of these Gades, And let me tell you he got all he wanted. B-Dubya waxed that A** on the drag strip, o yea and did i mention that he was on one of those what did you call it a POS, i meant Polaris Xp. Not being rude but, anybody knows that we who ride Can-ams are very biased, and show love to only one kick a** ride, and that is Can-am. So buy a Can-am, you will feel like the rest of us then, or buy the Polaris and 2 months down the road trade it in on the Can-am b/c you relized that it truly is the best machine on the market.

The Outlander is a no-brainer. More power, better ride, better quality, better durability, better customer service. Go Can-Am or Go HOME! A Can-Am is an investment. A Polaris is ready for a trade....

In all seriousness, I own my first Can-Am but have had probably 30 sea-doos over the last 15 years. The sea-doo name follows into the can-ams. They are quality machines with tons of power.

Funny though...around hear sea-doo's are not known for quality. They're known for being pains in the ass to start.

That said, I've never owned a Canam or a Polaris. but either one you can't go wrong IMO.

That's odd! Of all of the Sea-Doos we've had over the years, we have never had a single maintenance issue with any of them and have never had a problem with any of them firing off the second the starter button was pressed.

Outside of hard starting they ran like a raped ape without mechanical issues. But they always chugged and took long to start. Often floating aimlessly till the darn thing would fire up. Then it was all good.
