go with the vinson. the polaris is a tub of lard. and ugly too, but thats another discussion. pull up but web sites and compare them to each other.

 

ask all the questions you want. thats what this part of the web site is for. we only got the can-am cause we wanted a 2 seater, and were not impressed by the other manufacturers versions. im waiting for my 2007 grizzly 700 to come in. yamaha makes alot of great stuff, as do many of the other makers. but check out atvscene.com, and click on the evaluations tab, scroll down and you'll find a wolverine review with a video review. that thing looks like it rides rough as heck.

also think about it this way.....do you want to lead the group, or just be in the group. do you want to sit and watch people get stuck in the mud you just went through, and pull them out, or do you want to be the one stuck.
the fact of the matter is, there really isnt a good crossover atv out yet. and i dont think there ever will be. both types have great traits. i have a 400 2 seater outlander, and have had it up to 49 mph. i think i could have gone faster, but the road turned. what im trying to say is, utilities are far from slow now a days.

also if youre thinking about a suzuki product, check out nyrocatv.com. they have tons of info. theres also a link to how things work, where they go to the suzuki atv plant. its pretty cool.

 

Going to Suzuki today (again). Gonna make an offer, and see what they say.

 

Just got back. I was offered a 2006 (last year's model) Vinson 500 Auto. with a Warn Winch for $6,400. Good price? Did they do any changes for the 2007 model year that make it significantly better (or worse)? Thanks again!

 

Bump.

 

Is it $6400 out the door with tax and everything?? If so then yes that's a good price b/c the MSRP of the 06 Vinson is $6499.00, anytime you can buy an ATV below MSRP it's usually a good price...b/c I had to pay $300 above MSRP for my King 700 last year and found out it wasn't a good price. Plus your getting a winch.

 

So it's a good deal even though it's last year's model? Did they do any updates/changes?

 

I don't think they made any changes for the 07 Vinson...Have you tried working them down on the price b/c they want your business and they want to sell their 06 models to make room for the 07....$6200 or $6000 would be done deal IMO.

 

I'll try to go for a lower price when I get back...goin' on vacation to Delaware tomorrow. Have a good week, everyone.

 

if thats after tax, title, license, then yes thats a good deal. if thats before all that stuff, id tell them to screw off, thats insultingly high.
