User ID: 79785318 United States 07/20/2021 12:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was buying a new ATV for my son from Polaris (Ranger Diesel) a few months back, and my local dealer said the they have currently just one that they are able to get their hands on, so I should hurry. I thought it's the same-old sales trick, but sure, whatever, we'll take it. Quoting: Karlgel We finally took delivery now last week, and the salesguy told me that we were really lucky - they don't know when they can get more! They said they have more than 10 million USD worth of shit on order from Polaris, almost as much from other suppliers combined like Honda, Kawasaki, Can-Am, etc. They were supposed to receive 17 new ATVs this week, but those hadn't even left the factory yet! He said that "YOU CAN'T GET ANYTHING ANYMORE". And not just ATVs/ORVs/Quads, but literally EVERYTHING. Supply chains are DOWN. Many of my son's teammates confirm this, they are desperately trying to find a vehicle anywhere - not available, unknown delivery schedule. And you know what the really scary part is? CRIME is absolutely BOOMING. People are so desperate to buy whatever they need (starting with bicycles and shit), that they don't mind buying second hand - even if it's stolen - and even with list prices or higher! Be prepared, looting is hitting your neigbourhood real soon. So even the diesel Polaris are hard to get... Interesting. I stand by what a bunch of other people are saying, someone is diverting ass tons of production somewhere. Especially Polaris and rotax stuff. Their motors are in all sorts of interesting shit roguetechie |

Quoting: Supreme ChugALugging Have had it now 10 years.. Ive only had to put gas into it.. Great motor that Rotax.. After a week with the diesel Ranger, we're also exceptionally happy with it. We just had to "tune" it a little bit, there's a manual screw underneath the gas pedal which physically limits the movement of the pedal. After we re-tuned that screw, it moves like a dream, lots of power, great with sandy uphills / downhills. Looks also great. We took our with the full cabin, and it's road-legal too. |
