I was fortunate enough to be invited to the 2009 Arctic Cat Press
Introduction in Rapid City, South Dakota. This was a great
opportunity to review the new Prowler line-up before they hit dealer
floors. Arctic Cat put on a great event, and the ride location gave
us a good chance to ride over a variety of terrain.
New Prowler models for 2009 include the Prowler 1000 XTZ and the
Prowler 550 Flatbed.
We have updated a few pages here based on the time we spent driving
and riding:

With the best in class power that the 951cc v-twin EFI Prowler
1000 puts down, I am seriously considering it as our next
UTV Project Vehicle. Stay tuned.....

About Arctic Cat:
The Arctic Cat brand name has existed for more than 30 years and is among
the most widely recognized and respected names in the snowmobile industry.
Based in Thief River Falls, Minnesota, Arctic Cat was formed in 1983 under
the name Arctco Inc. to continue the legacy of snowmobile manufacturer
Arctic Enterprises Inc., which went bankrupt in 1981 after 21 years in
operation under that name. The company produced the first of its all-terrain
vehicles (ATVs) back in 1996 at which point it was re-named Arctic Cat
Incorporated. Since then, the company bounced back and has firmly
established itself as a leading producer of snowmobiles and ATVs to steadily
become an industry leader.
Arctic Cat Inc. is traded on the Nasdaq National Market under
the ticker symbol “ACAT.”
