I've had it stuck in muck and been towed out, but have also conquered some holes that I didn't see possible. I've raced it (horseplay style) in a circle, for 15-20 minutes straight numerous times. I've drag raced it probably 25-30 passes by now. Slamming gears without letting off the gas. I've pulled out other stuck quads. Been in water almost up to the seat. I've flipped it downhill on rocks in the Mark Twain National Forest (I was bleeding after that one). Turned it back over with a little help, and rode out the day for about six more hours. I'd say that's pretty much the grounds for what a guy/gal needs. It runs and performs like the day I took it home. All I do is change the oil and add gas as needed. I may be a little hard on it, but I didn't buy it to check the fences. EFI is flawless. One morning this winter it was 3 degrees and the ole Rancher started right up as if it were 80. I have many friends with bigger 4x4 quads. After a few beers, most all of them will admit, I have the best all around bang for the buck in the bunch.
Upgrades/Accessories: Zero mods. It even still has the original air filter. You absolutely can not go wrong with this unit!
