Overheard a dealer in Houghton tell a kid that a '98 Skandic is better than any new sled

I was picking up oil at the shop near Houghton last Friday. This high school kid comes in asking about a used '98 Skandic they had on the lot. The salesman tells him it's bulletproof and better than anything built after 2005. I wanted to butt in so bad. That old machine can't touch a modern sled for suspension or starting in the cold. Kid spent $1,800 on a 25 year old sled with carb issues waiting to happen. Anyone else tired of dealers pushing out of date stuff on new riders?
