What new sled should I get?

I need some opinions, this should be interesting! I'm currently on an '02 AC ZL800 and looking for a new sled. I ride with two friends, one on an '07 AC F8, the other just bought an '08 Yamaha Nytro. We ride in upstate NY, almost exclusively trail riding, mostly groomed, but will ride some rough trails from time to time. Never mountains or fields. What sled should I be looking at to keep up with these guys? I'm not too concerned about manufacturers, just looking for handling and reliability, and of course power! Thanks.

I've never ridden either of the sleds so I don't have a first hand experience of how they run. I have lined up with a few of the newer F-sleds last winter and they really didn't have much for my F7. I know that they had some tuning problems, so if they got those figured out, they will probably be good runners. As much as I hate to say it, if the new BRP/Skidoo (or whatever they want to be called) 800 doesn't fall apart while riding, it will be a wicked fast sled and a hard one to keep up with.
