Yea, it's been hectic. MY son's projects are taking the time. He has a Turbo Busa/DS and a Nitrous GSXR/Banshee. My other son has a Cheeta Cub that he is trying to get the bugs out of his Alky Lectrons. My poor old DS is just getting cobwebs. Reading all the posts on you 'Players' adventures really made me feel left out. Next year should be a good one.....

I definitely agree with the premise of this post, that people should not come on to this sight, or any other, and intentionally start arguments, cut down other people's choice of quads, call names, ect. But I think, Pastor, that you need to look at some of the attitudes that you project in some of you posts also. Just look, for example, at your beginning to this post. In one small paragraph, you included at least 3 statements that most intelligent people would consider inflammatory, if not down right arrogant ("can't handle the truth", "that you cannot have"- an outlander, "bad case of class envy"). On top of that, there's your post about "BRP owners elite group", and your frequent phrase about "seeing the light" (as if ANYTHING about 4-wheeling could be important enough to "see the light about!).
Let me say this plainly, Outlanders are fantastic quads, (my best friend and his son have 400s), but that does not mean that they are always the best, at every situation, for every person (as seems to be quite frequently insinuated on this sight). In my situation, for example, a 4-wheeler with huge ground clearance and availabilty of rack attachments, especially ice fishing attachments, was extremely important. So, would an Outlander 800 have been my best choice? Nope. Do I think that my Arctic Cat V2 is a great quad, the best choice that I could have made in my situation? You bet. And trust me Pastor, I COULD own an Outlander, but choose not to. And as shocking as it may be to you, I'm extremely happy with my decision (no class envy or jealousy here).
I gotta tell you, I've been reading these sites, from all the different brands, for almost 2 years now, closely following, with amusement, your progression from Kingquad to 800 Outy. In that time, I have never once felt a need to post in another forum (until today). It is just shocking that you and a few others can display such arrogance, and yet be surprised when someone comes on your site wanting to argue!
You guys have wonderful quads, so enjoy them. But keep in mind (as if this should have to be said), 4-wheelers simply should not be important enough in anyone's life to create this air of superiority. Maybe a little humblensess now and then, and some people might actually come in here for some decent discussions about different brands' strengths and weaknesses.
Oh well, just a thought.

I'll try this one more time, although I'm not sure why. Phrases like "outside looking in", "class envy", and "see the light", to give just a few examples, do not fit in a discussion of 4-wheelers! 4-wheelers are not life, they don't define us as people, they don't put us in different "classes", they are just recreation for God sake!
Get it?

You can bash anybody, not that thats what started it. You can even bash Honda. I won't get mad. I know deep down inside that all of you really want a Honda[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
There are alot of people who have brand loyalty, and get down right mad if you say anything against their quad. I've ridden an 800 and am a believer. I still love my Rincon, but that Bomb!! Only one word describes it infrigginsane.
