Right now there’s just a few set aside for ORV’s. I would be very tempted to get one at that point. Be cool of you could go anywhere right from the garage...just like the sleds. It’s all open by my place but still prefer the Jeep. The dust gets really bad by me. It’s awesome in the fall but the daughter is in school. There will be one in the barn when I’m retired.

I’m liking the newer SXSs and they are more trailer friendly to head out west and to travel different areas. Jeeps and SXSs both have their place,and I plan to have both. A SXS is absolutely useless where I live in the Burbs of Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecat Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) You can ride in town Rangeley last I knew. The Black Fly trail from Phillips to Rangeley is a nice trail. I think you can still go to the top of Kennabago. Quill hill is a great high point as well. Edited July 5, 2020 by Mainecat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ez ryder Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 at my cabin I can go almost any place. I really like my 50 inch sport . I am not in to the dusty heavy use trails more of a old skidder trail around the clear cuts sort of guy . when my buds with the wide stuff are up i get grounded to the dusty wide stuff . both fun in there own ways I just like to have both options open .

I thought I was gonna fall asleep on that thing it was so wide and straight, of course we were breaking trail in 18 inches of fresh snow so we couldn't go over 55 for the most part and make the next gas at Machias.

snowstorm Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 on a general you will get dust where the roll cage meets the windshield. the battery and fuel tank cover. duct tape fixes that. the c channel that holds the dash in place has a big gap where it meets the plastic. i had the dash out when i put the heater in. i used black silicone to seal everything dont do the piece that comes out to greece the front slip joint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The few times I have been out with friends, it,s only fun if you are leading. The dust seems to hang in the air forever, and if there are more in the group, it gets progressively worse for each following rider. You would have to have a mile between quads to give the dust time to blow off the trail and settle. Driving thru a cloud of dust all day, is not my idea of fun.
