Man, I had to get a job for my parents to even consider getting me a quad. I am 16 also and there are tons of places to get a job. I think that maybe you should get a job, and consider a cheaper quad.

I had to pay for my 400ex, and am currently making payments on a 2000 chevy k1500 ext. cab Z71. my parents helped me with a down payment, and they are covering my insurance for the first year. but after that I am on my own. My parents are generally pretty decent sorts, however they don't ride. and they don't understand that I need more power. oh well. I'm trying to sell it any way

My Parents compromised for me they offered to pay Half on my new Grizz 660. I think that’s fair it's a lot easier for me to raise the one half. And I can keep up with my school work because I do not have a terribly demanding job, We all know school is first, Getting your education is most important you do not want to be pumping gas all your life, Because you failed in school cause you were out saving for a Raptor. That’s my 2 cents[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Your parents are right to say no.

Buy your own junk.

LIVE BETTER, WORK..... even at 16..... I DID IT, and am still doing it at 30.

I OWN ALL MY STUFF

Now wonder this nation has gone to pot, kids are gettin to much free stuff and not learning the value of the almighty dollar.

One other thing I forgot

If you get a good Education then get a good job. You could get 50 raptors.

And by the way I am not a teacher. I just really feel that Education is important don’t bomb out on school to get some lame job making nothing go all the way get all your schooling do well in school become a friken millionaire. Don’t bomb out for a raptor
