I need a 4-wheeler or side by side. And I can't seem to get hubby to ride with me anymore! I ride to and from work, and jaunt around some, but with the camp we are working on, I doubt we will be making any bike trips in the near future. We got that Samurai, but I understand my limitations (he doesn't so much) and I know I won't drive the Samurai out all the trails and stuff. Its gonna have to be a 4-wheeler or side by side. Can't really afford to go buy one, so I considered trading my beloved Piglet. But I'll just have to find another way.... on that note, he is dozing the trails wider and clearer for me, so something will work out.
Thanks for all the encouragement to keep her!
Babyhog, my $0.02 worth and that is probably overpaying.
Don't sell anything you enjoy, ride to work is enough reason for me to keep her. I bought a used artic cat 300 4x4 a couple of years ago cheap. I am a big guy and that is plenty of machine for going through the woods and hauling out a deer. the side by sides are more versitale, you can really do alot with them, but they are not near as fun as the 4 wheeler.
I decided what i wanted and watched craigslist, it finally came up. Be sure to buy from an old man, they have nto abused the bike! If you see snorkels and such, just keep on going. But I am sure you know all of this.
I like all my toys!
