Noticable Difference from '12 XP to XM

Took my XM 800X 154 out today on its first ride and I feel it is night and day difference from my 12 SP. with sway bar in it could everything better and easier than the XP. My buddy that rides a pro was blown away by the new XM and how easy it was to maneuver compared to his. Ski-doo has hit a home run w this sled!

I have a 12 146X and my wife has a new 2013 146XM.
Went out for the first ride yesterday.
After we put about 20 miles on I rode her sled for a few miles and I could notice an immediate difference. Felt like it pulled harder and handled a little easier than my 12.

we went out last sat and it was my first ride on anything newer than a 04 rev with 159 track or a polaris 10 dragon with 163 and my friend with the 163 dragon was blown away by the 154 xm also and when his 163 got stuck sidehilling my 154 sidehilled perfect for the 1st attempt to rescue him (also caught on gopro) shure sucks up the whoops better and can't wait to go play in the deep stuff again tomarrow. so gotta get the rest of them easy breakin miles on it , shure was set up just for me seemed perfect even jumping can't wait. and while i never rode any of the other etech models i looked at the running boards on that 13 xm and no need to buy better boards or anything a major selling point. i have been working on my 04 rev for 1 year to get it where it is today and will be my best backup machine now.
