Wanna load your quad?
Saw this idiot at a stop light the other day.

I just want to see how this guy loads and unloads these.

poor ranger must be riding on the bump stops. I know my fullsize chevy had a max bed load of like 800lbs...cant imagine the ranger being even close to that.

How I used to pull our raptors and my buddy's banshee...we got a nice size trailer now, so we can throw 3 of them on it and another in the bed.

No kidding, the 1000-1500 must have snapped my frame. Zak, that idea popped into my head and I remember either you or someone posting that.
