    Just to be more accurate the 2020 I never got that I thought I had a firm order on. So if you remove mine will bring your count to 76.

    I do have a piece of paper now saying I have a 2021 on order.

    The dealership is holding onto all my accessories to put on the 2021. At least the trailer hitch will be on from the get go!

    Interesting observation, but I will respectfully disagree.

    In the process of adding the Tri-Axis handlebars and the J&M CB radio, I had a LOT of Tupperware off our bike. Most of the date codes I saw on the various components and body pieces had a May 2016 stamp. The final assembly on the VIN tag also showed May 2016. This was not "the end of the model year run", it is on a 2017 RT-S, the VIN ends in 000055, so it was one of the FIRST FEW 2017s that was assembled.

    We actually would have to visit the factory to see how the production schedule goes. I found the comment I made after homecoming. They were revamping the assembly line to make both Ski Doos and Spyders on one line so I wonder if some 2021s are being assembled along with Ski Doos this summer. I think your 2017 might be one of the machines that was on the idle Spyder assembly line during Homecoming in June 2017. They had stopped regular production in April or May 2017 but left some machines in various states of assembly to show visitors the assembly process. The factory crew was actively assembling Ski Doos on the SD assembly line. We were told they would finish the Spyders after Homecoming was over with so maybe they were designated 2017s and we visitors just were not told. I don't know that any of us looked at the VIN tags on the machines.

    Or, maybe they've always made a few of the next model year in the spring for demo and testing. But they definitely, up through 2017, stopped Spyder production in the summer to move the crew to assembling Ski Doos on the SD line.

    Let me know when the 2021 comes in and I will post it here. I will make the correction to the 2020 thread.

    Post up when it happens. So far...this thread has been quite slow.

    You have picked a good dealer to do business with.

    I am going to close this particular thread. There has been more "off topic" (I just bought a 2021 RT) information than entries.

    It has got to the point where I, the OP, am confused.

    Going to close this one out and re-start a new tally thread for the 2021's. I will come back here and copy/paste the three I have so far.

    Don't get mad please.
