Hey Quad4, A buddy of mine got his 6year old a E-Ton 90 and loves it. It has real headlights and brakelights. (also has a horn) It is sure a nice looking quad, and he has had no problems in the 6 months he's owned it. Of all the mini's it seems to be one of the best. Don't rule out the Honda 90 or the Suzuki LT80. I'd stay away from the oodles of off-brand stuff. Too many reliability issues, and poor dealer networks!

I picked up a qaud for my kid over the summer. Its a BLAST 90. I got it from the yamaha dealership in federal way. So far theres been no real problems with it except my son broke the crappy kill switch on the handlebar. But it is suprisingly quick or maybe I just ride slow. If you wanna take it out for a test run I can let you try it out, since my son is living with his mom in california for a while.
I took it out to Sandlake over Labor Day and really didnt have trouble getting around in the sand except he couldn't make it up the bowls. He did do okay in Tahuya the couple of times he went with me. I took him to Easton and he just rode around with micheal NWcuties son.
Here is a link to a pic from sandlake Blast 90

YoDadda & outkast,
Thanks for the input. I think I am looking at the E-Ton and the Suzuki, maybe now look at the Blast (haven't looked at that one yet). Read a good article on the E-Ton in one of the new Mags (they say it is getting close to Suzuki quality). With three kids, I'll probably have the 90 for many years. Would like to get a good one. I suck on making decisions though, takes me forever LOL. The biggest thing is don't want to be under-powered, want to be able to slow it down so the young-ins can ride, good brakes, susp, and reliable. I'll keep pluggin away. Thanks again

Ok, you're solo, Yam926 and KingoftheRaptor are solo. Cheech is ?. Right now Myself, BigDaddy and Buttercup are riding together, we can use my trailer (2 quad) or BigDaddy's (3 quad) trailer with his truck. Which means we can take 4 quads and 4 people. So bottom line is we can take either Yam926 or KingoftheRaptor and hopefully Cheech can take the other.
