Fordtruckin,
Does either the Skidoo 550 or the Polaris version have a 2 speed transmission so you can go to low range when you need to pull something heavy?
How is the track system set up. Is it sliders or boggie wheels?
It was Yamaha that started the cantilever rear rail system back in the early 90's with the VK540. It is Boogie wheels, which is superior for track suspension over simply static sliders.
Having wrestled with too many stuck sleds in deep snow where the rear just digs deeper instead of backs out at an angle, any utility sled has to have this system. Most big paddle mountain machines do not have this feature, and you really can only go forward because of it.
I don't own Yamaha shares, and make no money on the endorsement. I'm just saying look real hard at this machine as a choice.
Few guys part with them, which is the problem.
