Getting a decent bonus through work at the end of the year and I'm thinking it is about time to upgrade the 1993 Fourtrax. I hate to do it because the Fourtrax is a beast but, my brother needs a wheeler so it's as good an excuse as any.
I hunt in Jackson county and I'm looking at something with a little better suspension than my old one. A buddy of mine in the club has a newer Yamaha Grizzly with independent suspension. He has back problems so its good for him but I'm trying to decide on a Ranger or 2014ish Honda Foreman. I have heard the Rangers are loud but to be honest, I have hunted with that Fourtrax for years and never had a problem and if y'all have ever listened to an early 90s Honda, you know they aren't quiet. Not to mention my uncle hunts with an 84 Honda that sounds like it has straight pipes. My question is, are the Rangers any louder than something like my 4 wheeler?
