We only have 4 more weeks in AZ and then we are moving along. We will be back in October for next winter. I bet there will still be some 2019’s around at a nice discount. where are you headed?

I have a bunch of hombres I've worked with over the years in the RGV and I want to go down and party and eat real Mexican food with them for a week or so. I will put the motorhome back in storage in Vegas by mid May and come back to AK for the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokin george Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I'd stick with the CanAm personally. I looked at the Teryx, Honda,Arctic Cat and the Polaris. I chose the CanAm although pricier I made my choice. My buddy bought a new 900 RZR and it broke down his first trip out and it spent 3 weeks at the dealer. On our first trip out his broke down again and I had to tow him out of the bush. Think he"s got the Polaris jinx as I've towed two other of his atvs out of the bush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a 3500 lb Polaris / Warn winch on it. I have a buddy that works for CMP and he is going to get me a section of plow to cut up for the extensions.

Found a place in TN that has stupid deals, $4,200 better than what I can do in MI. Not crazy about the drive but for 4 grand I’ll go to great lengths.
