[QUOTE="knaffie, post: 493271, member: 4618"] I bought my buggy 3 years ago because I wanted something that does well going fast and crawling. It finished KOH in 2011 (before I owned it), so it's not a turd, but it's absolutely not an Ultra4 racecar by today's standards by any means. I don't race it, but I do enjoy being able to go anywhere I want in it, usually as fast as I want to go. I do everything from the hardest rock trails around to the biggest dunes around, and enjoy the occasional 100 MPH sprint. It's been a blast, but I'm finding myself looking for something else new and fun. I don't have $100+K to build a new buggy that would take it to the next level. I'm thinking a new RZR 1K plus about $10K in add-ons will get me 90% of the places my buggy would go (all but the hardest rock trails) and a whole lot more trials my buggy couldn't go before for about 1/3 the money. If I wanted to do a race or two for fun, I could probably be fairly competitive with a machine or that caliber (???). Who has made the switch and loved or hated it? I'm sure I'm not the first person to be considering this change. I figure I would need: real cage and bumpers wheel / tires better seats better belts better lights turbo or something to make better power better axles shock tuning else???? Could also sell my gas-guzzling expensive diesel truck and huge trailer in favor of a 1/2 ton truck and smaller trailer. :confused: [/QUOTE]
