Well I went to talk to a dealer today that is a bit closer than the on that quoted me the $5299 price. He was a bit higher but had no problem giving me the lower price.

Just went tonight. I ended up going to a different dealer because they allow test rides. They had an 05 VForce (Orange) for $5499. I really wanted an orange one so i went for it.

Oh man, you should have gotten the GREEN one; they are way faster!!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
It's going to be a short weekend for you!!! Maybe you can take Monday off too?

PS: One bit of advice. Don't lean back and hammer the throttle at the same time or you'll be sorry!!!
Have fun with your new toy. Im sure you'll enjoy it.

I will probably get it out on Sunday and maybe take a semi legal juant on Saturday night. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] We already had plans for Saturday so I'm going to have to pick it up and park it. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I got the same warning about the power from the dealer who let me test ride it. It was pretty apparent when I took it out though. Keep in mind that the last ATV I touched was an ATC 125 and that was about 13 years ago. This one was a little different. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Make sure you break it in right.

I warmed mine up, and went for about a dozen WOT 1/8 mile runs. A lot of people complain about V's burning oil. Mine does not burn a drop.
Here is what I subscribe to.

Do what you want, but your going to need all the power you can get........remember, you got the orange one. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Are the bombardier traxter's nice my dad is planning to get the John deere version lol. He likes them a lot. They look nice. How is the 4x4 feature? I heard they are good for taller people. I'd appreciate the feedback very much.
