New Snow machine Questions

[BIGNASTY]

Looking to get another Snow machine we have a Yamaha its a nice 2 up sled but sometimes we go winter camping and was looking for a sled for each of us. I was looking at Artic Cat. Never had one but they have been around forever and lots of people around here have them. The model I was looking at isn't for all out hair on fire speed. ( I grew out of that long ago) the one I was looking at has a 3 speed transmission. I don't know if a sled with this feature has been around before. It seems like a good idea. One its plenty fast enough to get an old man into trouble if so desired, two its got lots of power with 135 HP, and third and most important to us is the ability to pull large heavy loads of equipment. With age so does our required equipment list to be comfortable camping in Sub 0 conditions. Just looking for any suggestions. There is a video I will try to retrieve from the link but so far was unable to. Maybe try again and edit the post.

Being an Arctic Cat dealer(dirt, not snow), you could say I am partial. LOL All machines have pluses and minuses, but we have found that Arctic Cat stands behind their stuff. They are also making a lot of Yamaha's sleds right now.
