Well, my daughter’s birthday is coming up early next month. She’ll be five. We hadn’t given much thought about what to get her. We’re sort of procrastinators…. lol. Anyway, my wife was pouring over the FB garage sale sites as usual. She sent me a screen shot of an ad she came across for a used pink ’16 Outlaw 50 and said something about how she wished Sis was ready for a machine. I thought about it and figured now is a good a time as any. My son was a little younger than my daughter when Santa got him his first machine. I messaged the guy back and forth a few times and found out this machine is part of the carnage of a relationship gone bad. He said it was still on the first tank of gas when things went south. He has no kids of his own, so he was motivated to sell and came down from $1,600 to $1,450. I called one of our local Polaris dealers and asked what their leftover 16 Outlaw 50’s are going for. They didn’t have any left but said $1,900 was what they had been going for. So I thought $1,450 was a very fair price (if not low) assuming the machine was what he said it was.

My wife and I had someone watch the kids and went to look at it. It’s like a brand new machine that has been sitting on the showroom floor awhile. Just a little dust on the motor and all the titties are still on the traveled surface area of the tires. This thing had barely been ridden and if he had told me it had never been ridden, I probably would have believed him. We bought it the next day and took it down to my in-laws place where it will stay until her birthday party.

This is gonna be rough on me….. I have to wait a WHOLE MONTH before we can give it to her!!!! I already can’t stand it!!!! Lord, help me………….
