Went to the dealer today looking for a new quad to plow with. I checked out a brand new '04.5 700 Twin (carb) with Glacier plow and Warn 2500 winch installed for $7689.61 OTD (tax, title, etc.).

Here's everything spelled out:

'04.5 Sp700 $6699
Winch $449.99 + Plow kit $429.97 = $879.96 - $400 (Polaris factory disc.) = $479.96 - $95.99 (20% off dealer special) = $383.97

$6699.00
+$383.97
------------
$7082.97
+$566.64 (8% sales tax)
+ $ 40.00 (Title)
------------
$7689.61 OTD

What do you guys think?

Also, do the painted black wheels rust as bad/quickly as the chrome ones do?

I'm only 19 and this would be the first quad I have ever bought brand new. Any input is appreciated. Thanks.

 

the plow and wench price sounds a little high (before discounts). I would look into an EFI and maybe go with another plow. This is a year old quad, they should throw in the plow or wench free.

 

The plow and winch prices are the same that are listed in all Polaris catalogs.

 

Yes I know but you should be able to get some sort of deal on it IMO.
You can get a similair plow (Tusk) for under $500 with the wench and everything.

 

Why don't you run down to 'Polaris of Chattanooga', here is there prices:

2005 Sportsman 700 Twin $5999
2004 Sportsman 700 Twin EFI $6299
2005 Sportsman 700 Twin EFI $6499
2005 Sportsman 800 Twin EFI $7499
2004 Mossy Oak Sportsman 700 $6399
2004 Mossy Oak Sportsman 700 EFI $6399
2005 Mossy Oak Sportsman 700 EFI $6799

 

Are those out the door... i may need to do some running....

 

Those prices are tempting, but this is a good dealer and I don't want to drive all the way to BFE. Plus, don't I have to pay sales tax when I come back to Ohio to get a title?

 

Any other opinions anyone? Tomorrow I will be making my decision.

Thanks.
