I am also looking for the wife, she does not want to shift so that narrows it down. What about the Magnum 4x2, it is like the TB but has a shaft drive and best of all it looks like my silver/black SP 700!

 

My son had a Trail Boss, I got the Magnum 2x4 325. The Trail Boss was so much lighter, more fun, peppy compared to the heavier, slower Magnum. The hi/lo was nice, but I was very dissapointed in it's inability to climb even a very small loose grade. Hands down, the Trail Boss is the way to go.

 

My wife and I just went through the same ordeal. We ended up going with the trailboss. she liked not having to do ANY shifting at all. Plus it is a lot larger than the Recon. And I suppose the thing that swung it for us also was the $$ spent. We were able to get her 330 for 3399. The salesman misquoted the price and i made him honor it.
