Who has one if these and any feedback on how they work good or bad? 154 2.5 or 3 inch.

Are they worth the price.....almost as much as an 850

I rode with two couples who had them and they were happy. I will have to do some research Bert and find out their names. My memory is blank but it was Cameron, Bob and Pat and Judy. This was back a few years ago but I'm pretty sure they were the eTec's.

Those would be the 600 ho etecs. My wife has one and its been good. The g4 has a new engine, the 600r but costs almost as much as an 850. She thinks she wants another 600 so trying to find out how they are. Like I said, never seen one out there.

I have a 2015 600 for the wife and she loves it . It has been a great sled from trails to pulling grand kids around even hauling elk out of the bush. However when the son in law comes out with me over 6000 ft you can feel the lack of torque and power.Clickers on 4 and sweating bullets,but still gets around.

I do have both a 154 2.5 600 2019 and a 2020 3.0 600 154 they are truly the most fun sled I have ever owned. They are so much fun and if you took the stickers off and put alot of riders on them they wouldnt know the difference. These are really easy to handle and get up on the snow great. I have owned a 850 165 and 175 both 2018 and will never go back. They will go 90 percent of the places a 850 will no problems. You would not be disappointed.

The 600R is a fun sled i had it in a 154 2.5 for a couple days. i have a friend that has the 154 3.0" version and he says when your really loading it up in technical terrain it struggles a bit getting the big track spinning. But for all around mountain riding it will hold its own!

My wife rode a 17/850 G4 summit and found it to be a little too much. Bought a 19/154” x 3” and works awesome. I was in between sleds and used the wife’s as a back up sled for 7 rides and will second all comments that own them. It is the most fun you’ll have, hang with the 850’s all day give or take and extremely steep long pull. Guys I rode with that day didn’t know I was on A 600 until day and and were all impressed.
