Wheelers…aka wheelies, ATV’s, quads, four wheelers, or whatever you guys call them.
I miss my old Honda 300 4x4. That was so nimble and could stay on top of muck/mud/bog and snow crust. The new wheelers have way more power but are heavy and nowhere near as “light on their feet” as the older ones and bog down quickly in soft terrain unless you have oversized tires.
A couple years back the ex and I bought a Polaris 850 and 570. She insisted on taking the 570 in the divorce. Other than my son rolling it over once and causing 5k in damage it just sits in her yard. I bought a 450 HO to replace it. I liked the 570 much better especially because of the power steering.
Fast forward, I just bought a new 570 EPS on Friday. Same wheeler as hers but two years newer and red instead of tan (I really like this color) so we’re up to three wheelers again.
My 850 is incredibly powerful so I can’t even imagine what the 1000 would feel like (and for my uses the extra power and 6k increase in cost isn’t needed).
Here’s the baby. It’s getting a winch, heated grips, and a windshield before coming home.
