we have a 2007 outlander 400 max xt, which is great. but i would like something just for me. can-am is out of my price range. so this is what im debating between:

brute force
kingquad
vinson
grizzly

any ideas? thoughts? id like the biggest, meanest, most capable quad for the money.

 

BF, Grizz, or AC [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

i cant stand ac or polaris.

 

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] The Polaris thing is understandable (jk) But AC???????? Come on, what do not like about them?

 

And you live in Minnesota where BOTH are made! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

that shouldnt matter. we have a ford ranger plant and i cant stand them either.
prince is from here too, and well, hes a weird little f-er.

 

well at a local dealer they have the following pricing:

2007 grizzly 700 $7200
2006 grizzly 660 $6200
2006 kingquad $6500
2006 kawasaki kfx 700 $5200
2006 brute force 650i $5800
2006 brute force 7550i $6500

i really like them all. even have been considering the kfx 700. might be fun having something alittle more sporty. if i had 12,000-13,000 burning a hole in my pocket, id buy the kfx700 and another utility quad.

 

Sure it should matter, you might have family or friends that have a job from Polaris or Arctic Cat, and it sure does help our economy - at least the towns they are made in. - Not saying that it is a reason to for you to buy one, but it is good to show support for these companies. They have also teamed up and because of their efforts Minnesotan's have A LOT more trials then we used to. So without these two companies you might not have a place to drive your Can-am [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

And you gotta admit, Prince does have a few good songs [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Also, some of us from MN are going on an ATV ride at Spider Lake August 12-13, if you want to join us. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

v2rider informed me earlier. id love to go, but i have a wife and new born baby to take care of. she had emergency c section, then bled internally, had 23 units of blood replaced. shes doing fine now, but it will be a while before i can leave her alone for a while.

 

Oh man, Congrats and good luck. I have a 16 month old boy and my wife is pregnant with one another baby - due March 13th [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] So I know what you mean about not leaving the wife.
