I have bought stuff off ebay before. Sometimes you get bones. Sometimes you get a good deal. Other times it is the same price as if you went to a store or dealer to purchase. Just a different way to buy.
Do your homework on product and seller and it'll work out.... I bought a 2001 Z71 in 2005 sight unseen other then pictures... He had. 99% rating after seeking 500+ vehicles....
Yep. This guy seems like a genuine good ol' boy from Alabama. Sent me prompt answers to questions. Asked how long I could store it there to arrange shipping. His reply "I have a 30x40 pole barn to store my toys. I will keep it locked in there a couple weeks. 2-6 weeks." After auction he sent me several links to shipping companies and told me he would help best as possible to get me cheapest shipping rates. I replied with thanks and asked him how he would like payment. His terms simply stated "Item must be paid in full within 7 days." Good communication and seller willing to work with you makes me comfortable.
Honestly, if the thing needs $2000 in work, I feel I still got a good buy. You don't make money when you sell something. You make money when you buy it right. If I used this 4-5 years and sell for what I paid for it, not a thing to complain about.

Yea, it really is. After trying the EPS and the standard steering side by side, the EPS option was a no-brainer. Being able to steer easily with one hand frees up the other hand for spot spraying.
It cruises right along with very little effort at 45 mph, but I've had it topped out at 61 mph on the road.
You having it shipped so you don't run into your girlfriend down in 'Bama? rotflmao Just wondering.........
I was afraid she wouldn't let me go this time. Thankfully it was Jackson, MS and not 'Bama. lmao
Erin brought this up just the other day. Laughed about me flying down and driving it home. I said "Max speed 25mph? Long ride home isn't it?" Then she jokingly said "My white suga could do it." lmao

Welp, I sold my '08 700 Rhino yesterday. Had 7,000 miles on it and I blew the motor up in it this Winter. Long story, great machine, but they can only do so much!
However, I am in the market for another side by side. Seriously considering a Can Am 800 XTP Commander. Gonna test drive one here soon. Anyone on TOO have any information on one of these, I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks.

Thanks guys! It truly is a bad ass machine. I really enjoyed my 700 Rhino, but it's a turd compared to this. I have a camo hard top on its way that was thrown in the deal and it's coming on Wednsday this week.
