Default What is a lot of miles?

I am looking at a 2001 prairie 400 with 3,200 miles, is this a lot?

How many miles can I expect to get out of one of these machines with average use/ abuse?

cs,

You need to find out what kind of miles are on the machine....in other words, was this used to joy ride and beat up the machine or was it used to run fences on a ranch or farm. You see the difference....and then you need to ask yourself what kind of riding are you planning on doing on the machine to determine if this a lot of miles ??

Ride on....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

We have a 01 Rubicon with 2700 miles on it and would not hesitate to sell it to a fiend.

Thanks guys, it was owned by a rancher, so I imagine the use was fairly mild unless heavy towing was involved.
