Thanks for all the replys!

I went to Cedar Creek Motorsports in Cedarburg Wisconsin. I stopped in to take a look at the Polaris and Hondas. A week later I called my salesman on the way home and said, "knock off $400 and I'll come pick it up tomorrow." He checked with his manager and said they could do it.

I came in the next day with a casheirs check and now all of a sudden the manager wouldn't honor the deal. To say I was surprised would be an understatement. How could they all of a sudden not honor a deal they said they could do last night? I handed the salesman a print out from Polaris of Chattanooga and said that I'm not even asking them to meet their price, our agreed price was a couple hundred more, and still they wouldn't do it. So I walked. Definitely a dealer I wont consider in the future. Too bad.

I have five motorcycles and two other ATVs. Rather than just buy from Chattanooga I was looking to form a relationship with a dealer. Admittedly it was a good price, and now seems to be a good time to buy a new 2005 if you can find one. For some reason I have a hard time spending the money on a four wheeler. As a family we hope to do more four wheeling, but since it's always a trip to go use them, we went only a few times last year, even though one trip was to Colorado for a week.

Thanks again for the feedback. I do like the Polaris better. Still, I might just find a cheaper used model for another year or two until I'm sure we'll use them enough to get the value out of them.

thanks.

 

lets hook up, i'm in illinois and have been thinking about the trip to chatanooga for a new quad myself...good luck

 

I have an rincon. It doesnt have low range or a locker . it will out ride any other atv ....It is the smoothest riding machine i have riden.If u want to sink a $7000 machine in a mud hole to see if u can make it or ruin it.Have fun paying the repair bill. while im blazing thru the woods on my reliable gutless rincon

 

Honda's are very reliable. I think the 06 has a low on the tranny. My friend also had problems tipping over on his Honda. Don't know why, I weigh more and my polaris weighs more, we both went over the same areas of the trail. I guess Honda just designed them to get stuck in mud and tip over alot. (HA)

 

Hey ,sliderjack... go to avenue sport&liesure in Lannon WI . Tell Todd that Jeff with the blue 700 04 sent ya see if he gives you a good deal. (low ball to start ) I bought my 04 from him and have sent several others there for parts and service and 3 or 4 for new machines good luck

 

2 sly4u not to be a smart as$ but thats pretty tall talk for a guy on a polaris forum. I'll gladly take Vac days to come pound where you tread. If you need a winch, I have 1 !

 

Hey there sly. That is a tall order about your Rincon. Remember I ride with ya[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

2sly4u is right. My two buddies own Rincons and they fly in and out of the deep mud with no problems. I dont know why any anyone would dis them. They are smooth riding ATV's. My buddies have never had any problems with the Rincons either.

 

lets see how u feel after u ride my rinny. My *** feels fine after that night ride. Just got all that mud off her tonight.And gunnman thanks for the honest post.Whwn i do get stuck i will let everyone know.But i dont think ill be sinking my machine anytime soon.That is is i dint follow zappa into any more swamps lol

 

And what a great swamp it was!!!!. My a$$ felt fine after the ride too. Can't wait to go again. ATV brute and I found some spots later that you won't believe[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
