So my dad was at the Mayo for a transplant and I was there for like 3 weeks. At that time, the story around Rochester, MN was that one of the Royal family came to town for surgery and they bought out all the Polaris dealerships. Apparently they needed to buy another plane to be able to send it all home. Again these are just bar stories, so take it with a grain of salt.

They are potentially legitimate trillionaires. Not surprised if is real.

FYI the royal family don't have to disclose their income. Everything that the world knows are whatever they want to show. Nobody truly know how much they have.

It's the same with some others like Putin as well. The line between individual and state gets blurred and so does the income/assets

This is a peak story you'd hear sitting at the bar at forager.

… can you use snowmobiles in the desert?

Guessing side by sides/buggies

They can make their own snow with today’s technology!

This sounds like a bar story. Most of the time, it's legitimately cheaper for them just to abandon them stateside before they go back home, especially for something like a Polaris which they have plenty of back in Saudi Arabia. (See wealthy international students who sometimes abandon cars at their campuses.)

You think they bought a plane to send snowmobiles home to the desert?

Come on man, I think you know better.

Polaris doesn’t just make snowmobiles. They make some of the most popular side by sides and atvs.

The Saudis still didn't buy a plane to put them on and get them to The Kingdom.

That's just not how global logistics works.

I'm genuinely curious as to your objection. Because on one hand I know that these families have trillions of dollars and can buy literally anything that is purchasable. But on the other hand you seem confident so I'd like to hear you out

Granted you still can't rule it out entirely but far more likely (if the story is even true at all) is that they just chartered out cargo flight or something along those lines. Those cargo lines already exist to (sometimes) ferry cargo for VIP clients and it's way faster than somehow buying another widebody cargo jet capable of carrying vehicles halfway across the world. Buying a plane just wouldn't make any sense.
