Default To Camo or Not

I am brand new to this forum. It seems like a really great place to ask questions. I am really thinking about the Camo for my new ride. I have read in the past about it coming off or peeling. Has anyone with a new 05 or 06 Camo atv had any problems with this? My dealer says that the graphics are lasered on so they don't come off. I know he wants a sale, so I was hoping for some help on this subject. Thanks for any help. Alan

I wouldn't have anything but camo. I had a 2003 Prairie 650 in camo and now have a camo Brute Force 750. It is a tougher finish than the plastic and doesn't show scratches. I like the look besides. The only problem I have heard of is that if you do scratch it you have to be careful around power washers because it can lift the camo film that was applied.

Don't ask me how that link to Polaris got in my last post. Someone else put it there. Pretty good trick, but I still don't like Polaris.

tough

Polaris purchased the right's to the word tough as part of a Ad campaign which will
run until December 31 here on the ATV connection forums. If you guide over the word tough a title window pops-up that says
"Sponsored Ad."

I would ONLY get camo on sport utility type ATV. My P700 is camo and I love it. Yes, it has a few places (on meter cover) peeling but nothing major and can't even tell from 3'+ away because the base plastic color is green and naturally camoflaged with the camo. And I think it was my fault for the peeling because I had my pressure washer nozzle too close one time. Bottom line is that mine looks much newer than buddy's same year solid color ATV where you can see every single scratches.
