Well getting my new scrambler 500 4x4 on friday. Trading the sled for it. That what happens when there is not much snow around. Anyway I think I made the right choice. What I am wondering about is will it fit in back of my 99 Dodge Ram? It has the regular bed on it. I know the total length of the ATV is 74.5 and the truck bed is 72. But I wonder where they measure.

 

You should have no problems. I believe the measurements are from the

Frt. bumper to the Grab bar on the back.

and Worst case you may have to leave the tailgate down.

 

you shouldnt have any trouble I put my 425Magnum in the bed of my GMC and it has a tool box in the front of the bed.

 

I put my '99 Scrambler and have room for a pressure washer in my full size GMC pickup.

 

It will fit.

 

Most of the 6' truck beds are actually 76 or 78". You should be fine. I have a 6' GMC and mine fits fine.

 

Well I got it. It is pretty awesome. I know I made the right choice. I think it will be pretty hairy trying to learn to do wheelies. The qual picks up speed so fast. It has tons of power.

and.. you guys were right, it fits right into the truck.

 

can you tell me the REAL max speedo on the level for the scrambler 500 4x4?
Thanks

 

Everyone on the board says it is about 65. From what it feels like, i think they are probably right. It is pretty awesome that is for sure. It is alot different from the honda 200x i used to ride around on.

 

The exact speed is 68 and i've heard it by several people.
