Choices, always good

Evenin’ all, recently convinced my little brother to sell the Raptor 700 to get a 4wd atv, (read Grizzly), ha. No doubt, he rode the Raptor everywhere I rode the Grizz and had only been pulled out of sticky situations less than a half dozen times, however that’s not the problem. I rode the Raptor on the last trip and I told him if that was the only ride I had, I’d stay home, water everywhere, teeth were ratteling (I’m old), and fast as shit, ha.
So it’s gone and looking for a new quad for him to ride, really want a Grizzly and looking at all at this point for our ride in early November. Ran across an ’09 Brute Force that has peaked the interest however I’ve seen good and bad reports on them. I know the Grizzly and want to stick with that since I have parts, ha, and know how it all comes together the work. Looking reliable and can take a beating, just like a Grizzly. I’m pretty sure I know my answer, just throwing it out there if I have missed something along the way? XX let me know what you think, I trust you on this.
