The Doo is a really good sled. Just handles totally different. Steering post is angled rather than vertical. The 850 Etec is sweet. Lots of low and mid range.How does a 2019 ski doo 850 154 so model compare to the 2018 pro 800 155 I just found I can buy a ski doo for $10000 so it is only about a grand more than a pro. I have never even road a summit before.

I like the Poo better in poor snow and when things are steep or tight, just more predictable. The Doo SHOULD be more reliable and hold its value better. Pros and cons with each.
Right now I am a poo guy with an 850 and I am torn how to respond. The 19' is a great sled, they have upgraded the 18's electrical system and the front end. The front suspension was the first and most notable change for me. In my opinion and experience, their is no doubt the 850 is a better motor than the 800 as well. But my problem is saying that it is 5k better... I'm not sure how to put a price on it. (and that is a big one) If you have the change to spend, it's better and you won't be disappointed. Many smiles had. If you are trying to save a little bit, it sounds like you have a great deal on a wonderful sled that will make you happy for a lot less. And you will have money to spend on upgrades if you choose. On your comment about the doo, I ride with multiple 850's, all great sleds. Personally, I like the axys chassis. But the doo is a great sled with a powerful motor as well. I think it comes down to what you like. After Cat came back to the table with their 18' mtn cat, I truly think all three newer sleds are the best that have ever been built. And any one of them will compete head to head with each other all day. I don't think you'll be disappointed anyway you go.
That said, I'm a polaris homer. I'm comfortable on them and feel very confident where I can put it. I say poo , then cat, then doo and that is NOT a knock on doo. Someone who is comfortable with it will kick the crap out of me on a mountainside I am sure.
