So I received my golden ticket yesterday in the mail and in reading the back it says its good for $1000 towards a 16 or 17 800 pro rmk or 800 assault rmk but does not list standard RMK. The sled I purchased to get the ticket is a standard RMK. Anybody know anything about this? Thanks.

Yea I think, it's the same wording used in the original ad. It's a $1000 off one of their "top tier" units... Makes sense to me

Was not aware of that I was too hyped up as to how much sled I was getting for the price at the time.

Nope has your name address and vin# of item you purchased on the back and says not transferrable in the small writing.

Who knows if there will be a "Std" model in 2017/16?

Also... I doubt that the awesome deal, like on the Std 2015 RMK with upgrades will be repeated in future years IF a std model is offered.

Maybe the standard will continue in the current chassis and the pro/assault will be in the new? Who knows it will definitely be interesting! I'd like to keep my 15 as long as possible but I guess only time will tell I change my mind a lot

I've had my 2015 RMK for about a month and have not received any golden ticket. Should I contact Polaris?

I received mine a month after I picked it up if give it 2 weeks before you go calling around. Mine came USPS and if you aren't home to sign for it they won't drop it off, had to go down to the post office to pick it up.

Mine also came as a certified letter via USPS. I wasn't home so I had to go to the post office to pick it up... I would say mine came about a month or so after I picked my sled up.

The Golden Ticket was purely an 800 H.O. warrant, or insurance. If the 800 H.O. gets dropped in a RMK in 16, it would most assuredly get put in the Pro/Assault, which will most assuredly also be a higher margin vehicle for poo than the RMK. So it actually costs them less than $1k US compared to a lower margin sled. How much less will be purely volume-based sometime after 16 snowcheck (price per unit is set, but cost per unit won't be known until the build schedule is finalized). Maybe they won't stick to Pro/Assault only, but they have the option.

Who knows what model options there will be. The thing that get me is that is says $1000 of MSRP. My dealer get me sleds for cost and I am sure that I will not be able to get dealer pricing and then cash in my golden ticket. Whatever though, I am super stoked about the RMK I as a able to build from Polaris.....it is the RMK I wanted since 2011.

Picked my sled up almost a month ago and haven't received anything on my golden ticket.....hmmmm. Neither has my dad who picked his up the same day.....I'll give it a few more weeks I guess. Not like I can use it now anyway.

Okay, So I am confused....I snow checked a 2015 PRO RMK 800 LE and was told this would include a Golden Ticket for a 2016 or 2017 PRO...Anyway, I contacted Polaris to check on why I had not received the Golden Ticket yet (Picked up sled in Aug of 2014) and Polaris emailed back this response:

Thank you for contacting Polaris Industries regarding your 2015 SNO 800 Pro Le.

The golden ticket offer is available for RMK models only.

Thank You,​

That would completely suck!!I did get the RMK and know the golden ticket is part of the deal.I would have your dealer get to the bottom of it for you.I got a 3 year bumper to bumper so I probably won't be using my golden ticket.Its not like im going to get a fully loaded 163 sled for$12k canadian ever again.Yup was a good deal,and glad to have it sitting in garage.
