| 2012 Brute Force w/ PS. According to dirtwheels, the PS doubles as a stabilizer. Other improvements include more power, some suspension treaks, a front hood storage compartment, heavier drive belt along with new plastic and wheels. Something they didn't mess with~~That beautiful V-Twin Rumble! Besides the Tall Guy, anybody else eager to take a test ride on Kawi's Big Boy? | |

| I'm guessing some of the delay for the power steering was the new re-design intro. Should be another nice unit for the trails... Even more V-twin power. | |

| Did a little research. I forget the retails, but I remember what I paid for my 05 King Quad ($6200) and my 08 Yamacliner ($7400). To buy either of those quads now, with PS, an asking price of 10 grand is hard to avoid. I feel your pain, G. Even with good negotiating skills (aka bluffing) an OTD price of 9 grand might be tough to get done. It used to be that you could trade your three year old quad (and 2 or 3 grand) for a similar new quad. Now it's like trading cars. Your old quad is (still) only worth +/- half of what you paid, plus, your new shiney quad has risen by that same amount. So instead of a trade costing you 3 grand it now cost 6...UGH! Trading quads every three years used to make (guy math) sense. That would be tough to justify at todays prices. PS~~ Nice Jeep, DJ! | |
