Default FINALLY made my purchase! It took FOREVER :)

After getting the run around and misrepresentation from 2 dealers I said SCREW IT and went and bought from my local dealer. He is only 10 miles away and will work with you. They treat you like a person. I had to pay $500 more, but after what the other dealer pulled there is no way on earth I would give them a dime of my money! I went with a Green Rincon and let me say that this is a SWEET riding machine. The dealer was right and it doesn't have much engine braking, but it should be enough for our riding. I just bought a new Ramsey 2500 winch on Ebay for $199 after the rebate and FREE shipping. Can't wait to install the winch. I'm glad to get this all over with! Dealing with some of these LAME BRAIN dealers can flat our make you MAD.

I know what you mean by hating some dealers. I am looking right now, and had a dealer tell me that I could not test ride the bike until I had money? The bike was not new, and was sitting outside. When I buy a car, I test drive it. If they think I am gonna buy a quad just from looking at it they are wrong.

I am 32 years old, and not looking for a joy ride!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

Are you implying that if I'm 17 years old, I'd be looking for a joy ride?

Wisconsin, are you running the standard 25" Ohtsu tires? I wanted to go with the 26" ITP 589 M/S, but the dealer said it would hurt the ride and the long term life expectancy of the bike. I think I'll just stick with the OEM tires for now until I wear them down enough too justify new tires. This green Rincon with green wheels LOOKS nice!

A dealership is going to stereotype. Sorry man, but is a fact of life.

Congrats on your purchase...you will flat out love this machine. I am up in the air right now trying to figure out what tire to get....maybe the Mudbugs in a 27'' size or Mudlites.

Have fun !![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Most dealers SUCK...it's hard to find a good one, and once you do, most other people have figured that out too....then you end up with long lines and the service starts to suck...then you are back where you started from....a terrible cycle, kind of like a Polaris...get it cycle, terrible, Polaris....come on that was a good one.
