However based on brp history. The brp price will be greatly out of most peoples price range.
I know my cub cadet volunteer 850d + a locally built cab was 16000 CDN$.
It was worth it for the quality & versatility that is cub cadet. However you would never catch me paying that for a Polaris ranger, or Yamaha rhino. No matter how many flashy options they think we need.
Since i rent out my cub cadet the costs are manageable.
As far as i am concerned BRP/CAN-AM should be slapped with a fine for so grevously over charging Canadians.
I know that brp products are a cut above the rest. However there is no excuse for charging up to 4000$ more to people in your own country.
Considering that i have built many of my own machines, and i know what the costs of materials are at a consumer level. I can imagine the materials costs savings are at a commercial level.
Sorry for the rant.
