    I was looking at getting one sometime back

    But they seem to have all Polaris problems of the past that have never been addressed

    Voltage Regulator Problems, Guess they are going belly-up faster than they can keep-em on the self's

    Arm Bushing, Wheel-Bearings, You name it

    I Feel Polaris has been using sub-standard parts ever since RZR came out

    My Lawn mower has a better warranty than the one Polaris offers

    They know they can-not put a good warranty on-em, cause of the sub-standard parts they use to build-em

    I am glad they are not the only UTV Makers out there

    My-self I am leaning toward the New Yamaha or Can-Am

    Hope this Helps

    I took a test ride in a 14' Xrs Can Am 1000r, it was so loud inside the cab, I thought it had straight pipes on it, I looked and they were stock, don't know if they were blown out or if all of them are this way?
    I would say for trail riding everywhere we go the 60" 900s should be fine, it shares everything from the seats forward off the 1000xp.
    The Yamaha looks cool, but still don't know what it's really all about.
    Everything breaks , sometimes it bad luck, some times operator error lol.
    I bought my xp900 new, and never had anything major go wrong, outside of some a-arm bushings, but that's just maintenance, never broke a belt, always started and ran fine.
    There was things I didn't like about it, but they all have short comings, I think if you buy a new one whatever it is will be fine, just have to start customizing to make it your own. 🏽

    They do have a throaty exhaust. Having the engine right between the seats probably increases the cab noise too. They sure do sound good though.

    Supposedly Artic Crap is revamping the Wildcat and is going to be way way better. They teamed up with Robbie Gordon and he's helping with the design.

    I think a lot of the Can Am noise is the air intake under the dash combined with the central engine mounting. Mine got louder with the doors and roof so I covered in Dynamat.

    Probably will see lots of new offerings as Yamaha jumps back into the market with what looks like a possible "One Up".

    So I would think the Turbo would be quieter inside, cause the air box is in the rear.
