rxt vs rxp?

[Northwick09]

2013 rxt with 69 hours with trailer $8100 or 2013 rxp with 106 hours with trailer $7800.......whats the difference in those machines? only thing i really found was one handles better then the other in choppy water and more comfortable......i guess my question is which one would yall prefer and why? and whats the difference in both?

fyi: those r the 2 options i have on the table to buy!

Two completely different skis that are almost on completely different ends of the spectrum. Only you can decide which one is for you. The p is a 2 seater with aggressive handling. The t is a larger heavier 3 seater more of a comfort ride with less aggressive turning and handling.

yep- as stated above- are you looking to pull people on a wake board or tube and live on a big choppy body of water or are you looking for personal use and performance?

Will use for fishing..... pulling tubes.....cruising the lake in texas.... not close to the gulf or ocean......so by ur definitions i could prolly get the rxt

Yeah pull tubes...wake board....fishing... mostly lakes and those get choppy bc they usually pretty swallow .....so the rxt is bigger and more comfortable.... seems like that would be the best route for me then

YES! it's a flipping nightmare! it's nice for the 15 minutes it works. but to be honest, it makes jumping wakes and doing any high performance moves feel really weird. I had constant issues and codes with my 2011 RXT 260iS. he's probably selling it because of that. the IBR is an amazing feature that I loved, even with the occasional issues I felt it was worth the aggravation. using a handlebar lever to simply go into reverse & neutral or have a brake at high speed is awesome. but the iS- total junk imo unless you're riding open ocean a lot.

This guy wants 6800 plus tax.....7800 for boat and trailer...... ski looks really nice but looks like new decals and new seat.... should that worry me?

2014 rxt-x 106 hours on it (orange one) 7800 otd

Or 2013 rxp-x 69 hours on it (black one) 8100 otd

Both prices with trailer...... which one would y'all get? I really want the rxt bc it's bigger and more comfortable but the new seat and new decals worry me and new rubber mats on the rear....

Can you give me a good opinion on that

I have a 2012 RXT is. Bought it last year and didn’t have any issues with the suspension. It’s a little weird at first but got used to it. You can always just leave it down if you doesn’t feel right to you. It’s a nice looking ski. Not too many decals missing off ski.

I don't think that's an RXTX iS. "iS" means intelligent suspension. I too would avoid those models. Your pics look like a standard RXTX.
