I want to see a revival of the early '70's Bronco.

You are entitled to your opinion....even if it is wrong.
Polaris and thier bright idea drive belts that fail when you take them in the soup can be life threatening up here when they take a crap on you.

The "tests" have already been done. Go to High Lifter see what machine OWNS the mud, and rock crawling.
If you burnt so many belts, why are they guaranteed for life? Better yet, if they where so bad, why have they been around for a decade? LOL, that's no different than chevy's IFS is weak, Dodge tranny's suck, Ford motors are dogs... Brand BS spread by owners who have a vested interest in making other products less desirable.
I have been riding Polaris since 99, I have burnt 1 belt on my first quad because I didn't use low gear while pulling logs. I had to learn when to use low, (my fault) Polaris replaces the belt for free and I haven't used one since...
BACK ON TOPIC,
Name it what you want, bring a forced induction big suspension truck WITH lockers and you will have a hit!
I know we have 6 of them here at Clear AFS. We use them for Fish and Game enforement, Search and Rescue, land survey, trail maintenence and anything else that comes up. Experience levels of the folks that ride them vary greatly. Our dealer that will replace belts for "free" is 100+ miles from here. That is un acceptable when our Arctic Cats NEVER leave us stranded.
