looking to upgrade to a rev options?

im looking to move from my 1999 ski doo mxz 440 fan to a rev. not sure what size sled would be the best bang for the buck. my 440 is a dog but very reliable. i want more power but there are so many options not sure what would be best. 440 lc, 600, 500 ss. let me know what you think would be a good upgrade. thanks

Depends

Mikeeg, depends on how you ride. Short bursts of trail, lots of stops and starts the 500 should be fine. Long trails, lakes, bush riding get something bigger. I have a 2009 600 etec renegade and ride the later. Just love it. Plenty of power and speed. I'm no racer though but need a reliable sled with enough power to cut some powder and get me out of a jamb. Etec in my opinion is the way to go if your going to keep it for a while because the technology, clean emmissions, and fuel milage are something I think BRP will expand on in the future. Good luck with your choice.

Like my buddies say, when in doubt, go with more power.
