Welcome to the group! The Polaris / Can Am debate is a lot like the Chevy, Ford, Ram debate. There are plenty from each camp with experiences both good and bad to justify their position. The die hards will always stick by their brand, it takes something really special to make them jump ship. I think the 1500 XD is one of those vehicles that is so different and advanced that it can bridge the gap. I know 2 die hard Can Am lovers that made the move in the last year, and both are very happy they did.
