No comments, not even from the web wheelers? Great buggy if someone is looking for a long wheelbase ride.

It's still for sale, but I will cut it up soon if not sold.

sure I have one...How'd you get a green Yeti?

bmt · Jun 13, 2016

No, don't want to tear it apart to sell it. I have a potential local buyer. If it falls through I will just cut it up and shorten the wheelbase and redo the cage to something a little more eye appealing. It's not a Green Yeti, its a Carlos cooler. I imported about 350 of them in various sizes and colors. I sold them locally and at the ATV shops around town. They are all gone now though.

thanks. I have someone interested fairly local. if it doesn't sell in about 2 more weeks I will shorten the wheelbase and redo the cage to make it visually more appealing. I don't need a 4 seater.
