I have an 08 Polaris 500 wheeler that I’ve smoked a belt on plowing snow a couple times and once getting stuck in the mud. I’m not sure if they have improved or it’s better on the side by sides than my 12 year old four wheeler or not

Post by: BD1 on May 31, 2020, 05:56:26 PM: It is literally the only reason I don't have one right now...I really want one but can't justify it.

Post by: BD1 on May 31, 2020, 05:59:37 PM: If I did get one it would be Polaris based on my buddies luck with them. FYI they all have ones that are only a few years old, but they drive them like they stole them . Good Luck with your search, they sure are fun :tup:

Owner is a little off kilter but we got a good deal with no set up or delivery fees. Check polaris website for current rebates and financing options. We were gonna pay cash but they had 0% financing for 60 months so we decided to play on their dime for awhile.

You would be smart to get the Honda, people we know with them are having good experiences. I ran into another cougar hunter this winter with 3k on his general, three different times it has had electronic problems, he said it will only go about 5-10 mph when that happens and then has to go to the shop.

If you just want a work horse get the Honda. If you want comfort and fun, look at Polaris or CanAm.
