Default Attn: Polaris Company - PLEASE KEEP BUILDING ATV's HERE in USA!

ALL,

Would you like to join me in joining my cyber picket campaign of adding PICKET SIGN " VOTE NO for MEXICO! PLEASE keep the POLARIS ATV's assembly here in the U.S.A!" to your signature?

Thanks and God Bless America!

Polaris, if you're listening to your faithful buyers, please don't take US jobs and move them to Mexico. It will influence my future buying decisions.

It is sad to see they are moving to Mexico and leave people unemployed here in the USA! I bought a new sportsman 500ho in 2008 and was thinking of getting a new outlaw from them but now I will not. I like the Polaris brand and want to kepp buying there brand as long as they are made in the USA but I will not buy one if they move to Mexico. I hope someone from Polaris will pull there head out of their behind and keep making them here in the USA.

Well really they are not made in the U.S.A anyway........Assembled in the U.S.A is more like it.........Rads from Canada, Sure Power Module From China, plus many more I'am sure..........cables,hand-grips,belts,now even there Polaris winches........

Just like my good old Chevy Avalanche....MADE IN MEXICO........Or should I say assembled.......Does it really matter..........YES!!! keep jobs here............

.........Caper.........
American(plus Canadian...LOL)........Built right........Jobs do matter........

Here's one for ya! I bought a camo Polaris Sportsman hat from my dealer. Tag
says "Made in China".

I still think we should keep the jobs here, re-tool the factory (if needed)
and continue to produce the same quality ATV's that they have done historically
well over a decade. -- IMO

Regards,
