what are some pros and cons for the trail boss 330?

 

heavy but good trail quad

 

The trail boss 330 is a good wheeler for the money. It is very well rounded and good at most type of riding. I have had mine out with guys on 500 cc wheelers and had no problems hanging with them on the trails. It is very simple to use...as it only has forward , neutral , and reverse. It is surprisingly good in the mud for a 2x4. The rear fenders could be wider ....when you start spinning the wheels it covers you with mud. The boss is good at everything but great at nothing . I like mine...but sometimes wish I had went with a 4x4.

 

i have a 2002 trailboss and love it. its been a good machine to me. i replaced the tires and that helped out alot in the mud. i also bought stiffer front springs that has made me very happy. this year alone i have put on 500 miles and is the first year i've done any work on it. i replaced the tranny belt and tie rod ends. (not sure if i needed to do those but i did)

 

I have a highly moded Trailblazer and bought an 04 330 trailboss a few months ago. Needless to say I dont drive my 250 much anymore. I love the ride of the 330, great in the mud for a 2x4 and I can do just about anything the sp's can do. The gas mileage is awsome. I can use half tank of gas riding all day long while the sp's already filled up once. The only con that I see is it is slow and no 4x4. Once they break in, the speed picks up a little. They seem really tight when new. It will do about 47-50mph tops. It has plenty of power to go up steep hills and to tow people. I would say for the extra $700 I should have went with the 330 magnum. It has the fender flares,composite racks,speedometer pod,shaft drive and low range. You can get flares for the trailboss for about $130. It helps a great deal when riding on sloppy trails.

 

I rented a Trail boss 330. It did almost everything my friends 400 4x4 scrammy did except cross muddy wet tree roots up a steep hillside. Real comfortable ride. Love the soft seat. Wish the seat on my scrammy 500 was as soft. The 330 could use more ground clearance. Plenty of power but not a powerhouse. Really easy on gas. No 4x4 but same size tires as a scrambler.
