Default Coleman quads and UTVs

Anyone know anything about the Coleman quads and UTVs that are being sold through Cabelas? I saw them on the back of my most recent Auto and ATV catalog that I just got today. Cabela's: Coleman ATVs

Just curious. My guess is that a Korean company is making these for Coleman. Look kind of like a cross between Polaris, Yamaha, and Kymco.

I'd guess they are just more cheap Chinese quads, no parts, no support, no fun. I'd rather pay more and get a good quad, and a dealer who will help me if something goes wrong.

The back of the catalog had the 260 for $3,799, the 550 for $5,899, the 500/700 UTVs for $7900, and $8,900, and the 800 UTV for $10K. I don't think they're Chinese for some reason. I did find it interesting that the 260 has 4wd. Would I buy one? Probably not. Was just wondering about them.

WOW if they are a knock off that would put it at ~500 less than a polaris for basically the same machine makes me wonder also if they arent made by a name brand for coleman such as remington used to make guns for hardware stores and put the hardware store name on them and not remington

That was kind of my thought too.

Looks just like a Bennche, and priced like one as well.

We bought one earlier this year (700 UTV) from a Kawasaki dealership, and got a warranty as well. Look them up on the internet. I bet they are manufacturing them for Coleman.

I dont know for a price that close to a name brand I would spend the extra 500 or so and get the name brand but thats just me and my 2 cents

I understand. We did a lot of research before we bought, and hopefully made the right decision. It was quite a bit cheaper than just $500 though. We paid $7995 for ours, and that included the windshield, winch, mags, and top. Compared to the Yamaha Rhino, which was around $11,900 I believe, and that was without the winch, windshield, top or mags.
