Decision's! Decision's Lord what we go through to buy a new TOY!!!

Lyle be happy with whatever it is you decide to buy and don't worry about what other people have to say. "ALL BRANDS HAVE TROUBLE" FACT NOT FICTION! If you get a good one you will love it, if not you won't.

Buy a quad that fits your needs not your ego. I just bought a new high dollar 4wheeler and was amazed at what the different dealers had to say. If your interested in one brand the other one is junk and vice,versa (all of them have room for improvement!).
As for me: The only thing that is true about atv's are that they have a bad tendency to create "GREAT MEMORIES AND A HELL OF A GOOD TIME". (nuff said)

P.S. Wished I could go riding with a buddy of mine, but he's having fun raking hay with his 98 polaris 500 (that is trouble free) which is a lot more fun to use than a tractor! q:-)

Be happy with your decision and have a good time.

Mud600: If your asking me! Yes, 36 years ago after it rained I was atving in the back yard when I got mard down in a mole run on my trusty 3wheeler. I aplied all of my (till then) 6 lifelong years of knowledge to the situation (rocking back and forth, side too side, turning the front wheel) but to no avail I WAS STUCK IN THE MUD. Even my zebco winch couldn't pull me out to small of line. (they didn't make spiderwire back then) From that day on I always wondered? If I just could of had a Big Wheel would I have gotten stuck or maybe even a couple of ****** blocks to lesson the line pull hhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm?

Maybe thats why I bought a winch with the Big Wheel Grizz! q:-b

Thank you everyone for your input. It was greatly appreciated. I just bought the 2000 Grizzly. I am very happy with it. It is a very nice machine. Lots of torque and very comfortable to ride. Its handling is very predictabe (no rolling from side to side). Once again thank you for your help.

Your Welcome; Hope that it serves your needs well and makes some GREAT MEMORIES!

P.S. My new grizz doesn't have the wheel hop that the reveiws claims it does either.
