They stopped putting the sub in for 2022. Too many people wanting heaters and too many complaining about the crap way that Polaris setup the 4 speaker system on 2 channels and using the other 2 for the sub. I don't have Ride Command and am especially happy I didn't put the money into that piece of crap setup to be disappointed like so many on here are.

The "stage" 1, 2, 3, 4 is all irrelevant. You got a ride command with 4 channel amp and 4 speakers. No sub. You have to add the sub since 2022. They don't come with one anymore.
 
Thanks for info gent's Polaris website is quite misleading on it in my opinion, as no difference from stage 2 to stage 3.
They only offer 2 options from the factory that I'm aware of. The PMX radio with 2 speakers, or the Ride Command with 4 speakers. Anything else is dealer add on accessories. That's why the "stage" becomes irrelevant. They explain it in the specs very clearly what comes with the machine.

They stopped installing the sub in 2022 . My 2022 Ride Command with stage 4 did not come with the sub ( which it was clearly stated in the Stage 4 option when i ordered the machine ). Asked dealer/ Polaris why and Polaris said its because it interferes with the heater ( if you install one ) , Which it does . I was pissed when I couldn't get the complete stage 4 system I paid for . Told Polaris that was a BS move to sell a stage 4 kit that wasn't actually a Stage 4 . They did offer to knock $50 off the purchase of a $500 sub ( that i already paid for with the Stage 4 )
They have obviously changed their wording and now call it the stage 3.
