I live in North Central Florida, I am 53 years old. Until 3 days ago I had not owned a 4 wheeler since 1993. I bought a 2001 Xplorer 250 4×4 Friday afternoon. It runs, drives and the seat and plastics are all in good shape.. but it still needs a few parts.. front CV shafts and upper steering bushings..I used it at my hunt club Sunday to drive down a wet muddy road with a ladder stand and a few tools on board, no problems. Today I went to see a local guy who works on 4 wheelers in his spare time..Well he had a 2003 Mossy Oak 500 HO in his shop that he was going to tighten up and sell for his friend, I wrote 2 checks one for the 500 HO and another to fix a few things on the 500. I had already ordered the parts for the Xplorer 250 so I will fix it and put it up for sale, I think the 4 stroke 500 will be a better fit for my needs.
