I keep trying to get my parents to get me one, the usual, saying there cool...blah blah blah, i want a raptor but they dont want to spend that much money, im spoiled, ill admit that, got everything i want, but i guess ive reached my $$ limit with this one, they even say 1500 is a lot of $$.....how did u guys get ur parents to get u one? im 16, and in school so i cant really work, and i dont think i can raise 6k in a couple of months...in other words, i want it right now....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

Better change your signature to reflect upon the fact that your parents said no.

If you 16 you're old enough to get a PT job and EARN your Raptor.

 

Yea...

sorry bud but i got started w/ a honda odyssey for 750 bucks from my brother in law. from there ive worked since i was 12 i think, not full time jobs. you can work when youre 16 you know. anyway ive earned enough $$ now to get a warrior and then keep on saving and keep on moving up in the world. anyway, good luck

 

most people i know get jobs when they are in the first or second year of high school. if u dont have a job, GET ONE!! part time jobs are a dime-a-dozen , IF you look for them, u may get your parents to get a used quad for ~1000 but it wont be the best, but i bet if you get a job and start offering some $$ also it would look good to them, they will consider getting something alot more expensive. just a thought.

 

m 16 and I earned my blaster and all the mods on it. I work PT about 25 hours a week on weekends and after school. I bought my blaster for $2000. I put a good amount of mods into it on my pay. Dont get mommy and daddy to do everything for you. Start saving, in about a year and a half the raptor is yours.

 

If you don't pay rent your all set! Save your $$ and find a job pumping gas or working in a canshed. It's rewarding and you'll feel better about the purchase.

 

Did you try cryin? How bout a hissy fit? My son 8 years old works for me on average 10 hrs a week. Yes work, he earns his ride.

 

I'd have to say a Raptor is way too much quad for a beginner. Get a good used machine and put in some seat time. I'm sure part of the reason they said no is because they think you'll get hurt on the Raptor.

 

How about a PT job at the local quad shop ?? there you can learn about quads,how to fix em, and will be able to spot a good deal when one comes along. Besides ,sounds like you could use a little work ethic.
