Maybe..."Honey, I need a 4 wheeler so I can drive to the shed and get my paint brush..so I can paint stuff for you"... ;)..was that it?   :P :P  :P :P  I might have to try for one.."Honey I need a 4 wheeler like Goose's so I can go get the mail for you" (about 50ft).... :(............Have a Happy... 8)

Hope you are having a good Day, Goose.

1st.........a winch. ;D ;D You might not use it much, but you WILL !!!!!!!! ::) ::) ::) And you'll be glad you did when the time comes. ;) ;)

2nd.......the plow system. The glacier plow 2 from Polaris is the cats patoot. ;) ;) ;D ;D And #1 will come in handy with #2. 8) 8) 8)

3rd...... when you get tired of those spider webs getting wrapped around your mug, I got the fix for that. ??? ??? ??? Two ss car antennas mounted on the front corners. Works like a champ and cheap too. ;) ;) ;D ;D ;D

Be safe and have fun. ;) ;) ;D ;D ;D

The ones from a car are stiffer. ;) ;) They even tend to hold back those dreaded "multa flora rose jagerz". >:( >:( 8) 8) The CB antennas won't do that. >:( >:( (and I got the scars to prove that) ::) ::) Just remember to mount them on metal, not plastic. ;) ;) Had to go to lowes to get the bolts to mount them, METRIC. :o :o >:( >:(

One other thing.......HAND PROTECTORS. ;) ;) Plastic ones will work fine. ;) ;) ;D ;D

The hand protectors tend to deflect those jagerz...sometimes. ::) ::) Gloves on the other hand (pun intended)  :P :P Those jagerz will latch on and wrap you up and SHREAD YA. >:( >:( A cheap pair of pruners is also a handy thing. :o :o On the trails the get regular use, I'll trim the jagerz as far as I can reach while sitting on the quad. ;) ;) It only takes a couple of times that you get snagged and you will see what I mean. :o :o Just try'n to help. ;D ;D 8) 8)
