My close friend is an AC dealer and called me from the show yesterday.
Arctic Cat is forcing him to buy 38 sleds and 10 of them need to be 4 stroke. He says the mood there in Nashville is very sombering as alot of the dealers aren't jumping on the bandwagon of flooring 10 $14k 4 stroke sleds. They also require that he order $100k in preseason parts which will stock him up on all the new chassis stuff, however the parts list isn't available yet so this can't be agreed to either.
Needless to say, alot of dealers are leaving Nashville with their middle finger in the air.
