well I picked up a new quad ......... I was gonna go for the sportman 700 but decided on this unit instead as it seems more handy


it's a polaris ATP 500HO specs

here's some quick pics my dad snapped ........










it's got the wrong plow in it right now I ordered the v plow as shownin the pic below but it didn't come in so they let us use the regular blade for now



I'm gonna get a box cover like in this pic and I'm gonna put a rack exension on it like the front box ..then I can put stuff inside and strap stuff to the top



may also buy this steel flatbed too It's quite a bit bigger so it can cary more stuff

 

VERY nice.

 

That is a nice plow set up. I wish I had something like that this year. So far we have received 98" of snow.

Uh, got any more pics of that first gen Ram in pic 2?

 

LOL the old girl is pretty rough ................ it's a plain vanilla 84 ram 150 2wd with a 318 and it has 400,000 km (248,000 miles) on the original motor and still going ......... although with a lot less thunder than it used to have , belngs to a friend of mine ....the quad was at his place .................

 

looks good i could of done without the windsheild though.........gets in the way of heavy duty off-roading

 

I hear ya ..windshield's gone for the summer ..............I found it kinda cold running around at -30 though .....needed a windshield ...............brain starts to freeze up at 30mph in those temps

 

Very nice!! We (my wife) got the 330 ATP last summer for her Search & Rescue call-outs. That little sucker can climb! I can't imagine what the 500 can do. Got my self into a wash and the only way out was back up for 1/4 mile, go over a huge tree, or up the side. I went up the side thinking no way, it's only a 330!! It made it no sweat (unlike me). Very pleased with it but what ever happened to GREASE FITTINGS ? I also like the turf mode, great for the rear tires during cruising around on the flat. Take care and enjoy! Jim
