[QUOTE="Bacon, post: 393459, member: 666"] Am I the only one who finds these things a little ridiculous. $50,000 for a toy. Just out of curiosity, I compared the specs on this with a Toyota Tacoma. Arguably one of the best selling most popular, and most reliable mid sized pickup. The wheel base and width are almost identical. The Polaris weighs 3300 and the Toyota 4400. So a lightweight SxS argument really isn’t there. Polaris isn’t exactly known for long term durability. Toyota is. And to top it off, I could buy a brand new Tacoma for a little over $40,000 depending on trim levels. Now if the Polaris would last for 100,000 miles I probably wouldn’t worry about it.
