Good morning fellow ATV fans. I used to own a Big Boss, the 500 model, chain driven. I think it was built around 2008. Both my friends owned the same machine and we would use them to carry our hunting gear in to and out of moose hunting camp. All would be loaded down and pulling trailers. Machines worked fine. No issues other than one guy rounded off the sprocket because he did not adjust the rear chains. We did have the occasional overheating issue due to mud covering the radiator.
I plan to get back into the 6X6 game and am torn between the new Polaris and the Outlander 1000. Both have + and -'s and I can't ignore the Outlander costs more.
How rugged are the new Polaris models?
If I have the machine loaded with 400 pounds in the bed and pull a meat wagon weighing about 8-900 pounds what should I expect for fuel economy? We have a 35-40 mile journey to get to camp. I may add tracks to the rear wheels at some point.
