I finally bought, did I get taken?
« on: June 02, 2009, 04:06:25 PM »
I bought a Yamaha 450 Kodiak 4x4 with automatic, winch and Real Tree paint.  It is a 2005 with only 124 miles on it.  Previous owner thought he would use it but didn't.  Thing isn't even scratched.  I gave $3,800 for it.  Kind of bought it on impulse.  I was looking at new Hondas and Polaris but this seemed good as new at a nice discount.  I know nothing about Yamaha products, however, so I am a bit nervous.  Got it and had to leave to come to work so I haven't had a chance to play on it yet and see what it will do.  Next step is a 60" Swisher finish mower, picking it up later this week and then maybe I'll finally get my yard all mowed at the same time!!

You got a good deal. I bought a 2004 660 Grizzly with 238 mi. and a 12' enclosed cargo trailer for $5500 last Dec.
