Ive upgraded 3x from the original RZR to what I have now which is the XP900. I knew a 1000 would be out shortly after I bought mine but no news and dealers, well, they were mums the word. 800 to S to XP.
Im the guy that always accessorizes everything and wants the next big thing but, seriously… 20+K?
This isnt one of those "I wish I could afford that" threads. Im not a millionaire, dont get me wrong. I buy what I want within reason. Every RZR I’ve had has been paid for day 1.
What Im saying here is that for 20K, I’d rather buy a new Jeep (or other 4×4 vehicle) with air conditioning and a heater rather than a f’n SxS. Yeah, a bit wider but when SxS’s came out, even the thinnest SxS was wide. Common trails on MX bikes became 4 wheeler trails became SxS Utility trails became SxS sportster trails etc etc.
Or, hell, for 6K, buy a used off-road vehicle and spend 14K on upgrades.
Maybe its just me but seriously, 20+K? Im ranting but I feel the demand is pushing the market and things are ridiculously overpriced.
Dont get me wrong, the move from MX to 4×4 to SxS is in the right direction, at least for me, but 20 fn K….
Im done upgrading, at least for now. Ill still be the guy at the back of the pack making sure everyone makes it up the hill or around that obstacle. Still the first maybe second guy out of the vehicle to help with the person in front. Still the guy that hangs back at turns to make sure the guy behind me knows which turn to make. Still the guy that knows hand signals to tell on-coming traffic how many are behind me. Still the guy with the cooler on the back and a tablet + GPS + tunes.
In the woods, can’t even utilize the power. Just nice to have.
Anyone else feel the same or just me?
