i have a 95 xplorer 400 4x4 it has about 5000 hard earned miles..... now its time for a rebuild (in the process) now... i also co-own a 2005 sportsman 500 HO with 1000 miles on it.... (eventually selling it to my dad.)

like i tell everyone.... drive them hard... they are meant to sit in the garage..... When i got my 05 .... the same week i was floating in 3 feet of water.... I like to push the limits....
