Default Who makes The Best Sled??

I've been riding Quads and Dirt bikes all my life, until just recently my job transfered me to Watertown NY. Home of Lake Effect Snow. If Hell were to freeze over, you'd be in watertown. The only thing to do in this place is to ride sleds.

I know nothing about snowmobiles so I was just wondering what you guys thing? Im in the market for one thats reliable and capable of handling real snow! (102 inches recorded in Mexico NY)
The people ive been talking to ride 200+ miles a day through all kinds of trails so it would have to be able to keep up.

With 200+ miles per day you would probably be best off with an rx-1, they have to fill up about half as often as any of the two strokes. The two strokes beat them off the line, but they are the best for top end.

Gas isnt as much of an issue as you would think. The NY trail system runs through just about every town in the surounding 3 counties. You can ride right up to the pumps.
