Back to the original post. You all have seen my posts. This machine is a damn mountain goat. I've climbed some serious stuff, pulling a meat wagon loaded with firewood and gear, without one issue. Never bogged down, never had a hiccup. It's rock solid if you drive it right. When you're working it, drive it like a tractor. When your on surfaces that are good for high speeds, treat it like a race car.
I'm tried not to respond, you know someone like me, once I get started...
But AK you hit the nail on the head too perfect for me to pass up saying something lol
A mountain goat is the perfect parallel and yes this thing will climb like I never imagined a UTV could climb. In fact I'm wondering now why I even needed to cut roads...
The truth is every day I see myself climbing up embankments with such a severe angle I'm almost positive the front end is going to do a somersault as it tips over straight up in the air backwards.
But I'm a firm believer in using low pretty much all the time and only using high on more straight aways or asphalt. I wrote another post that I think for some reason putting it in low would make one appear to be a wimp or something in some peoples minds.
Not me, low is exactly what low is, it's meant for greater pulling power and climbing ability and really, exactly who amongst us wouldn't be all for that!!!
Spinning the tires out in high may look really cool, but all I can envision in my head is clutch slippage!
Most of my original post was with CP in mind you can bet your bottom dollar on that. I was a newbie when I first came on board here and was pretty much busy full-time fending off the attacks I got for my first few posts here and when I first read the issues he was having I didn't really put all the pieces to the puzzle together properly.
I think I probably thought initially like some people thought but didn't want to say. Which was "Horse crap, there's NO way CP destroyed his engine going through that little bit of water he showed in the video. He swamped that thing trying to cross a lake and we all know better."
What a sad, crying shame it was in retrospect that I gave more credit to a companies impeccable reputation for indestructible machines, never dreaming would be vulnerable to such a mild occurrence, at the cost of questioning a man's word.
Come to find out after all...
But of course I didn't know any of the members at the time being a newbie and as I say, I was embroiled in my own bitter battle with Honda concerning the bed not being able to tilt while reinforcing my gate and boiling hot tar at the top to pour on the other members attacks.
Not to mention, HondaSXS was stalking me AGAIN at the house, so I had to call the police and.... Ok ok, just kidding about that part
but I did so love reading his rant I can't say I'm not trying to encourage another one even if
it's directed at me. It's always very refreshing to see the untouchables come down themselves to roll around in the ranting mud with us once in while
But now as the dust has settled and I grow more experienced and I am gaining more knowledge, the puzzle is now complete, and in the background there's a picture of a Honda Pioneer 1000 driving through a spilled 5 gallon bucket of water and the words that go across the front of the puzzle reads something like "CP GOT SCREWED FROM HONDA".
See, I told you I shouldn't have replied and got started..
