no way it was hard packed! the landing ramp the tires never dug in and there wasn’t any plywood out there. Not like i made the landing ramp out of some special snow.

When I buy a winter vehicle, since my mountaineer is a POS, Im also going to buy trailer and a quad. I’d REALLY like a nice 500+ utility with plow.

I rented a quad while I visited some island off the coast of mexico, was a fucking blast. But it was only a 125. Anyone that knows me can find that mental picture hilarious (I’m about 315lbs) That poor thing was DYING on some of the hills

4x4 fag for life. Haha. I have 8+ toys(currently). If I had to give them all up. I’d keep my big-bore 4x4 quad. I love all toys. But I think the best money is these newer FI 4x4 quads. Always start, run like champs, no matter the hill/slope/angle. Have good power. And can get through just about anything, any time of the year.

Wheelieing sport-quads is a bitch. You have to use the clutch. I like to rock wheelies on my 3-wheeler. That way, I never have to put down my beer. Haha.

Like I’ve said. I love all toys. Ride what fits you, just try a few options if you can, before you buy.

Renegade 800 looks killer to me. However, the amount of speed I can get on my Brute 750 for 4k less. I’d push you towards a Brute 750. Great acceleration compared to the rest of the 700-800 cc pack. Check the weights between a Brute 750 and a Can am 500. I think they are within pounds of each other. No complaints on the Brute as far as fun factor goes.

I looked at that same one last night. I think 04’ was the last year for Carb. I’d offer 3500. It looks clean. But, my buddy bought an 05’ Polaris 700 that was near mint for 3,800 in spring 09’.

I was riding through logged forest this weekend. A 2wd sport quad would’ve burned up in the 90+ heat and tree stumps and logs everywhere. However, the fiancee and I had a blast. We didn’t go over 3mph for +1000ft. I hoped off and let her crawl the trails for a while. Had a blast. Def. got stuck bad a few times. And like an idiot, I didn’t take any photos. Either way, had a blast.

Depends on your trails. If they are like a track, buy a sportquad. If you can’t do more than 10-15mph. What’s the point. Get a nice 4x4 quad and have fun. Technical is fun. Just a different kind of fun, than speed.

I use to race quad am/expert and I wouldnt even burn up quads in 90\*+ heat with a radiator full of mud bouncing off the rev limiter.

and sport quads can go over tree’s and stumps without a problem, if the rider knows what he is doing.

are you familiar with GNCC? Hundred + miles or woods racing on sport quads.

this is how it should be done anyways.
