> [@94Gt5.0](#): > > Is it just me…or does anyone else HATE 4wd quads? Idk why it is, they just piss me off :lol when I was 12 my grandfather gave me a 3 wheeler and thats what I learned how to ride on…I mean I rode snowmobiles since I was 5 so it was natural to me but I loved that 3 wheeler…I took that thing thing water over the handlebars a dozen times and the thing never broke! Then he let me ride his honda trx350 4x4 and that thing was a beast…they are actually really fun and nice for a good change…I just personally have a speed addiction which is why I have a nasty sport quad, but if I ever ran into some extra money I wouldnt mind picking up a 4x4 one. ---

I dont know why it would be dead though. if they are weak and the cold weather hits that will be enough to finish the battery off… the same thing just happened in my grandma’s 6 wheeler…put in a new battery and it started right up. ---

Hopefully the battery is under warranty. I just bought the quad at the end of September and havent ridden it a whole lot. It was an '07 leftover though so it did sit for a while but it was in the showroom. ---
