Ride red or blue or go home? Go home to the Yamaha thread and ask more questions why your Raptor broke.

Sorry. Did not want to start a bashing session here. Plus I forgot to specify the Scrambler400 4x4 was the quad in question no longer made.

Now I should be OK according to RaptorDink because my Scram is red...what to do with that "slow" green Xplorer?!?!?!
Hmmmm.... Blue spray paint?

Lets add some fuel to this fire: It was stated in this mag that "the Rubicon's transmission is a mechanical and engineering marvel in the ATV market." "10 inches of ground clearance"

O.K. nuf said!!!

Ride red or blue or go home? What in the living hell does that have to do with anything else these people are talking about? And how come your home instead of riding that "crapturd"? You must really be as dumb as you present yourself to be.....

A 400 Xplorer far from being fast????? I wonder how many other 400 class utility machines they have raced against one. I can keep up with a Grizzly (and even outrun him on days when conditions are right) and that is a 600cc class machine!
Maybe they couldn't figure out where Hi range was.

Dealers know about new things but they don't talk about it because why try to sell next years model when you have inventory in the showroom, a car dealer told me that. makes sense.

I worked at a car dealer a while ago and we were not allowed by the manufacturer to withhold info on next years models if the customers ask. Now I`m sure every dealer followed this rule NOT! But there are some guide lines put out by manufacturers to the dealers on this issue. Early in the model year they may not have any info but toward the end they should.

I am a car dealer, and i can tell you sometimes I find out about new things in the magazines, before the manufacturer tells us. Many times the dealers are last to know.
