Polaris question

[Hoytmania]

Was looking at some Polaris quads today. Looking for 2 fold.

1. Its gonna plow my drive.

2. Recreational fun for the wife and I, hunting, and general 4 wheeler stuff.

Found this one and it seems a tad high but think I could get him down just a bit. Where I really need help is in the video I post up. Can anyone tell me what numbers represent what? I.E. hours, mileage. So forth and so on.

Any and all advice is as always appreciated.

I’m not sure what order they go in on that display, I have a 2018 but the display screen is totally different. I’d say whatever the higher number is would be your miles and the lower your engine hours, third may have been rpm’s or something. I’d also recommended watching for rebate deals, Polaris usually does them once a year late summer/ early fall if I remember right. $2000 rebate on the 570’s when I got mine. Hope this was helpful

I have something different so no help on the display but when you look at plows, check out "Moose plows" if it doesn't come with one.

Think @OhioWhiteTails has same one.

I had a 13' 550XP I sold for that much. Only had 310 miles and a different display. That seems crazy high to me.

This Covid crap is keeping the values up.
Should be your miles, hours and trip meters (reset at oil change)?

So its got 1980 miles with 260 hours. Low price for this model is around 2600, with average around 3700. So he's definitely way high, thinking of offering him 4200 and see what he says.

@CJD3 what is it about the moose plows that you like about them. What sets them apart from the rest?

 

[giles]

Why would you overpay? For a 9 year old bike? I would think more along the lines of purchasing new, using the shit out of it and selling it in 9 years to buy another.

I click 2 seat, which the one pictured is not. That a actually a storage container with a seat. I am also guessing it doesn't have power steering so you can get it new for another couple grand. That is money ahead in my book. Even if you are working on a budget, another years worth of saving would be worth it IMO.

I have had solid customer service. The mounting bracket that attaches to the frame on the belly of the machine fit perfectly. Jeff had bought plow from A big box sporting goods store like bass pro or cab and the mounting plate was a bitch to attach. (One of those “one size fits all deals”) A big machine like you want can easily handle a 60” blade. Also unless you only plowing in the same direction, I don’t recommend the “country” style blade. It’s more wedge shaped. Stick with the standard rectangle design. At the time I bought it 5-6 years ago. They were always one of the top rated. I’ve been hard on mine. If I needed to replace it, I’d just order another one. No shopping around. Factory direct.” Some assembly required”.

Just my 2 cents worth of input.

Hoyt, I sold my 2015, 570 SP Hunters Edition for $5K almost 1yr. ago to date......he's way high on a model of that age.

I'd be in the 3500-4K range on an offer if it fits your needs. You can get into a base Sportsman 450 for around $6K new.

I also agree with sequence of info on that display, miles, then hours, then idle rpm.

I’m not sure about as of late... But this summer, prices of new ATVs were through the roof. I bought my 2017 Suzuki brand new. This summer, a buddy of mine was thinking about getting one. Same exact machine, but a 2020, was $3000 more than what I paid, and didn’t include any extras. My price included plow, winch, tax title the whole shebang.

I'd like me some shebang!
