The show is on tonight at 9:00 if you want to watch it for yourself.

But I personally thought that they totally ripped the 700. They basically thought it was junk and should only be used for farm work. At least that is what I got from watching the show. Oh well, I like my 700 and as long as everyone else likes theirs too, that is all that matters. I didn't buy it b/c someone else liked it, I bought it b/c I did.

I found all of his sponsors did well, even though Honda can't ever get traction and the swing arm on the Kawaski will beat you to death. What really amazes me is how putting Carlisle tires on the Polaris solves all its problems. By the way, what is the first advertiser you see every week on his show? This survey comes from a man who thinks winching atv's thirty feet at a time for two days as recreation. If you have to actually ride one for two days, you had better be riding a Polaris. I have owned every brand and there is a good reason why I ride a Polaris. YEHAW!

I canceled my Outdoor channel because I got sick of watching Doug Myers winching atv's up rocky mountain gourges. If that was the only kind of atving I could do, I would sell my quad for a street bike.

I personally believe that Doug Myers has been bought out by his sponsers. I realize that you need these sponsers to pay the enormous cost of putting on the TV show but come on Doug. I can't hardly stand to watch the show anymore. It's to bad he can't just tell it like it is and still get sponsers. Instead he's got to give kudos to his sponsers. I have ridden many different atv's and have a hard time believing in what he says.

It is cool that atleast their is a show centered on atv's. It's just to bad the show is bought by the sponsers and that the show in general, SUCKS.

The only time I see a polaris is the opening of the show. I've been watching the show for a year now,I've never seen a polaris featured.And why did'nt they mention the trans problems that plague the rubicon or grizzly.Or how they all did in the mud. (not all of us live in the desert)He complained about the high revs it takes to engage the 700 if engaged at lower revs it would be dangerous.because the engine is so powerful.He said one of the riders was thrown frm the machine ,and suffered a compound fracture.
