Anyone had any experience with any of these? Looks like the 2011 + models of Polaris are hard to beat. I also like the idea of an electric bicycle but they are as much as a cheaper golf cart. Any insight helps thanks.

Type of terrain and road/trail system may make a difference in which best for you. 2010-2011 Polaris had lots of problems...2012 and after good to go. I’ve ridden a RAD bike a bunch in Illinois this year. I guess it depends on your terrain. I wish it had more power for climbing hills, and traction in mud is not good. I do love being able to drive right up to my stand and just lay it down. Multiple times I had deer walk within 5 yards of the bike and totally ignore it. I would sell a bad boy buggy if someone gave me one

Ive got an EV and a Rambo--like both of them a lot. I tend to side with my EV unless I don't feel like pulling a trailer. The bike is nice for getting really close to the stand as mentioned above bc you can just ditch it and climb but dang unless you've got really nice flat ground it will beat the holy heck out of you even if you are going slow. But I will say the ability just to throw the bike in the back of a truck and quickly get to your hunting ground is nice.

My dad bought a lemon of a used car one time and grandaddy told him he "Oughta trade it for a dog and shoot the dog". That's how I feel about Bad Boy's. I bought the wife a 2013 Ranger EV in 2015 because her gas one couldn't stand up to her use. We've had almost no trouble with it.

For example, four times in the last 8 years, I've been called at work because either her gas Ranger or a mower had run out of gas while she was using it. All 4x, she left the key on and killed the battery. On one of the occasions, the Ranger was in the road. That meant I had to jump them off while trying to get fuel back to the carb. On another occasion, hers died while down the hill in the corn patch. I hooked a strap to her's and pulled it up the hill to the house. I mentioned it seemed to really bog mine to pull her. She then told me she'd had the emergency brake on the entire time. When I asked why she didn't say something, she said she was afraid I'd get mad. Yeah, she don't need anymore gas rides.

I don’t have a Rambo, but I have a fat tire bike much cheaper than a Rambo. It’s a 36 volt bike with a 350 watt hub motor. Battery is brand new ($180). I bought it off Facebook, but I don’t need it. It needs someone that wants to research upgrades to get it some more power. Could upgrade this bike cheaper than a Rambo and have 3 times the power and 3 times the battery life

I bought a Polaris EV and thought I would not like it, but I love it. It rides a whole lot better than a golf cart. I’m truly impressed with mine.

I just bought one of these. I might can help with a better price as well if you are interested. It is strong! I haven't had it long enough to put it through the ringer.
