Default Im this close to pulling the trigger on a New P700.

Well I have been beating the P700 or Vforce around for a long time now.I have recently purchased a house and the 4X4 just makes more sense.(snow plowing and tree removal). My question is do I buy the P700 now or wait for a free plow/winch deal or wait til July and see what new quads are coming out?

Thanks

Personally, I would wait. More choices and probably better prices.

if you wait untill the '05 comes out you can either pick between them or pick up a 04 for cheap and then with the money you save buy the winch or plow

Maybe you should wait until the new 750 EFI comes out. No choking on cold mornings and no rejetting at different elevations.

I would also wait just a bit. Seems a lot of new bikes are on the way and that makes for good deals on "last years" modles.
I think I would avoid Fuel injection myself. When it breaks, you push, at least with a carb you can almost always limp them back. Plus don't forget jets are a few bucks, a new control unit is 100's when it breaks. If you look at the history of small engines and fuel injections you see there have been a lot of problems. The dirt, dust, pounding that they endure on a bike *plus underwater, mud, etc...) is really hard on a unit. I figure the carb is cheaper and I VERY rarely go anywhere I need to reject. Ask yourself how often do you take trips with you bike to a far different elevation - if it is a lot then maybe it is more of a advantage, if not......
Good luck with whatever you get

Thats another thing Like CODE54 said, I would be nervous about the first year EFI.Now if I got the 700 and then a 750 came out(carbs) I would be very upset.Well Looks like Ill wait and keep saving.
Thanks

Just a FYI:

I have been calling around for prairie prices and one dealership in WV is hands down the cheapest.I got quoted $6020.00 OTD. Now I live in maryland so I dont have to pay taxes but everyone else wanted 6400-7000 OTD.
