Arrow What to choose???????

Hey All
So, I sold the Jeep, and now I am getting an ATV

What is better ...... a 2004 Outlander 400? or and older Big Bear 350??
I am just concerned with reliability and toughnest. I like speed, but I do not know about the Outlander's belt system???

Maybe I should get one that has less electronics for a carb??
Let me know what you all think!!!

Both are good quads, but the outty is going to have better power and ride. The BB is nice for it's simplicity, and you can choose what gear you want to run in. Ride both if you can, and then decide, but I'd buy the outlander. Don't drown it, and use low range when mudding, or lugging around at slow speeds and the belt wont be an issue.

X2 CanAm would be fastest in class quad. Usually fastest per cc compared to other utility machines. Big Bear is a nice simple and reliable quad.

I agree with the the other post but also say the big bear would be more reliable.
