    • Sleds are made in Valcourt so this would only affect our American friends buying a new skidoo not us. Seadoo and Can am atv's im guessing would also be subject to it as they're built in Mexico. While reading the article i could hear Ross Perot in my head saying "its that giant sucking sound" lol  "The changes mainly lead to a 25% tariff on the value of snowmobiles and many off-road vehicles when they are imported to the US, the company said"

    • I won’t be paying it going forward either
    • Bummer, must of got the certain number of views.   skidoo was paying 25% tariffs on some materials needed (like steel and aluminum) for the sleds, atvs sxs etc. now it’s supposedly 25% on the entire vehicle itself. 
    • BRP has been smacked with high cost tariffs on their manufacturing - forecasted to get even higher ( i.e. cost to manufacture is going up, way up ) - thus you're cost to buy their products will fall in line and you'll pay for it.   No thanks
