Uhhhh, Sure, but they're going to need to package it with, power windows, air conditioning, anti-lock brakes and a CD changer or it will never sell.
Yea I know you don't have to tell me "shut up" right?

Good point, but the power steering should just make it EASIER to turn the wrong way in the pow-pow!

Power Steering Would Be A Great Addition You Could Get The Ski Pressure To Turn Like You Were On Rails And An Apex Would Feel As Lite As A Phazer
I hope not it will be another price increase on sleds.

It would be like rideing on ice all the time .No feedback thru the bars.And a little hard on sliders and wheels i would think to get a apex to rail?There could be a market in two up touring sled models but a performence sled might be pushing it?

We don't need power steering, it's a sled not a car. There's not really any need for it IMO. Just one more thing to look after.

I agree with ya 100%. BUT the way the industry is headed(USER Friendly) I could see it happening down the road weather we like it or not. When I heard Yami was doing it on the Grizz, first things that came to mind is thats one more thing to go wrong and people are just do da** lazy. I mean come on how hard is it to steer a quad esp. when its moving, if you cant do it you shouldnt be riding it. If your in decent shape you shouldnt get fatigued till the next day if at all. Only use I can see for it on the 4X4 quads is when your running the Maxx Tracks or something along those lines. Mainly because you have so much more surface area touching the ground compared to regular tires it makes it harder to turn, but even still if your moving you shouldnt have much of an issue. Dont want it to happen, but who knows.
