What exactly are the differences? Not having seen one in person it appears that besides the camo they have the rack extensions and front and rear bumpers. Is there anything more ? Would the $480 difference my dealer wants be worth it or would it be more sensible and economical to purchase a camo kit and aftermarket bumpers and rack extensions.

Thanks in advance for your replys!

Racks are 69.99 each and so are the bumpers, that's about 295.00 with tax. I think fender cover kits are 169.00. About the same money, but with the fender kits you can buy the flashy color and still have camo, wish I had thought of that sooner!

I bought a yellow HO and then bought the extras off ebay. My dealer wanted a $600.00 up charge for the camo machine. I paid $120.00 for front and rear rack extentions. $122.00 for the camo fender covers. and $24.00 for the camo seat cover. I like the looks of the the yellow one but for hunting I wanted all camo. The fender covers also came with a headlight pod cover. Another nice thing is it protects the plastic from getting scatched up. The covers fit very snug and look cool on. I think they actually look better than the camo plastic.

Thanks for the input that sounds like good advice for protecting that plastic !! Besides I am really beginning to like that silver color it is a cool color.

Thanks again,

Triston
