These companies all have stocks that have to continue to rise or their investors sell out. They want to see their stocks increase every quarter. Only way to do that is to cut on materials and labor.
Cheap plastic things from China or Mexico with a huge mark up.

Until the greedy investors of the world stop wanting more and more on their investments, nothing will be made in the USA anymore.

Investors are one of those, "can't live with them, can't live without them", things. Investors money goes into R and D, and future product development. In a time when most quad makers are scaling back their new products, Polaris has a pretty good flow of new machines coming out each year. Not sure they'd be able to do that without investors. Just a random thought.
What is that saying???
"Is it the best system, NO"
"Is it the system that works the best right now? yes"

The last polaris parts like brush guards, bumpers, boxes etc I've examined were all made in china.
Last time I bought wheel bearings at an auto parts store the things were made in Romania. I thought "well, at least they're not made in china".

The add seems to need a little proof reading before it was placed. Besides the price, down in the specs shows voltage to be 112. This could be a little shocker by itself
