I buy used do to machines being much cheaper,truck,sleds cars you name it,thats the point of it. Take a ATV from the show room home and its $1000 less than it was 15 minutes ago before you take your first ride.

He's looking at an '09 800 with 100 miles on it for $6000...Is that a good deal...I know it depends on what shape and all but ballpark...
Thats like a person offering you $3500 to burn the first tank of gas of your new ATV. I can do 100 miles in a day ride.

If a ATV is bad after only 100miles ,I would not even want the make and model of that ATV even brand new.

Lots of those deals out there (NEWUSED) a person buys a new machine finds out he can,t afford it or finds out he just does not use it enough so they just suck up there loses.

Agreed! I'll look for a slightly used in great condition and use the savings for add-on's or just save my money. Gotta love those impulse shoppers that decide their purchase wasn't something they wanted/needed in the first place. Or the guy who just have the next newest thing so eats it on the old one.

The tanks are smaller on the '09 and '10 because the EPS unit is on the same side as the tank. For '11...the EPS unit was moved to the other side of the machine.

Hope this helps...

Thanks I kinda figured it had something to do with that...They must have moved it for the 11's seeing both models have the larger tank...

I just purchased mine, brand new with 1/4 mile on it for $7300 about 4 weeks ago. Out the door with Tax, title and assembly, it was $8600.

It it a 2011 850XP, pretty much base model. No power steering or anything. I had to get out of the city to find it for that price. Every other dealer around wanted at least $8400 before taxes.

Although I agree wholeheartedly with TLC, my father in-law bought a 2010 850 with EPS last year and I must say, that is one bad machine!

Maybe one day when I finally win that damn lottery?
