I am thinkig about selling my 400 Sportsman! My wife wants another Trailblazer and selling the Green Beast is the only way I can afford it.Whats eveyone think I can get out of my 96 400?I need $2500 like it is but if I ebay it I will take the pipe,clutch and other performance mods off.And put my reserve at $2000 and buy it now at $2300.Does this sound out of line to you all? Then I will start the quest for a good Trailblazer.

Why won't she ride the 400? It's got to be more comfortable than a Tblzr. Is it too fast? Maybe you should just put the stock stuff back on for her. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

So make it a two wheel drive. That should eliminate 2 chains and axles on the front and lighten the fron end up a bit. Just some ideas to save you money. Two wheel drive won't cost you a dime.lol

I think it's more of the female half has to have the "nicer" ride - look at 98% of the U.S. population - most of the families have the wife's ride nicer than the guy's. I just recently picked up an '02 RW&B SP500 HO and as soon as the wheels hit the driveway the first thing out of the wife's mouth is "THAT one is mine!"

New plastic a seat cover and polished wheels could go a long way to making it look new and is still cheaper than a newer quad. Besides you are nuts. It's a 400 for Pete's sake.
