Just ordered a new ATV
« on: Oct 22, 2015, 03:15 PM »
Just ordered my first ATV.
Should help out greatly on the walking.

Nice rig! You will really appreciate riding instead of walking. My advice is get an auger rack attachment and a large plano box for your rods, tackle, electronics...etc.

I already have a Clam 2 man flip over to tow behind it with my gear.

The included 5 year warranty sure played a big part in the decision.
Most only come with 6 months & you pay lots extra to upgrade that.
Many don't even offer 5 years as an option.

Nice.

I run diamond pattern with studs on the back and two link vbar on the front. Makes a huge difference.

I was just at the dealer earlier today as they prepped my ATV.
Found out the 2500 lb Superwinch is on back order so they upgraded me to the 3500 lb one for no additional cost.
Pick-up after lunch tomorrow.

That 5 year warranty has to be cutting into other manufacturers sales....I run Polaris and have had great luck with them but it is time for my daughter to get a new quad this year and we may get her a Can Am based on the extra warranty...They are all very close on performance..

Cat's were never an option here.
They still have new 2014's they can't move.
Not a good rep around here.
Actually some new 2013's still available.

I have a 2013 Can-Am Max xt that I bought new and could not be happier with it. The 2up atv option has to be one of the best things the manufactures have come up with. Enjoy!
