neusbaum Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Who has the best prices on Polaris ATVs in Minnesota ? I'm looking for a Sportsman 800.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gissert Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 It is good to get the best price you can, but don't over look the dealer servicing aspect. Make sure the dealer you are buying from will take care of you down the road should you need it. When I bought my Sportsman three years ago, I checked around the state, and found some pretty good prices. I then went to a local dealer with a good customer service reputation, and asked them if they would match the price. They did, and I have been very happy with their service.

neusbaum Posted March 20, 2006 Author Share Posted March 20, 2006 Thanks Gissert. I appreciate the input. For me, sales and service have always been kept separate when making purchase decisions. I always buy from the business that offers the best deal and I always seek service from the business that has the best reputation for service. Sometimes those are the same business, but more often they are not. I've never had a problem operating under this philosophy, but I do understand and respect those who believe you should buy from a place that offers great service. Just my 2 cents worth. I'm hoping to find a dealer who consistently offers the best pricing on Polaris ATVs, even if I have to drive a ways to buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neiko Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 My suggestion is check out Stacy Our Own Hardware. They have consistently been the better price when I check on prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jltimm Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Hitchin Post or Heinen & Mason (at least I think that is their name)Look in the Sunday paper in the classified under atv's.You will see random dealer adds for various brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokey Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Heinen & Mason does not carry Polaris anymore. They are a Yamaha - Arctic Cat dealership now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdawg Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 The dealer in hastings had the best price when I bought mine a month and a half ago. I really looked around as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Once or twice is humorous, every post seems a bit too much humor. And, I've had some complaints. So, let's keep the humor in line when humor is warranted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAY2FAST Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I have just purchased an 06 Polaris Sportsman 800 EFI LE....Great machine...I traded in my 05 800 EFI loaded...It is at Vetters Sales and Service... Black/RedI have come to respect the fact of doing your research on prices, but you gain respect in the long run with a local dealer that will work with you on the little problems all ATV's experience.... For the best price out there....Chopper City Sports in Fridley will give you a great deal on NEW. My suggestion.... Get prices and talk to your local dealer.my2cents.

SomethingFishy* Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I just purchase a new wheeler today, I found the dealers in Fridley and Hastings to be the easiest to work with unbeatable priced. I purchased an 06 Sportsman 500 EFI Limited Edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigstick44 Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I had very good luck with Forest Lake Motor sports, they were willing to dicker on the price. As far as Stacy hardware, be very careful, they are OK to buy a new wheeler from, but I would NEVER bring my wheeler there for service or work to be done. I speak from experience.

dougger222 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I picked up a 06 Polaris 800 Camo EFI two months ago with a Warn 2500lb winch, front rack, and glacier plow mount minus the blade from Diggers Polaris in Prior Lake for $9,700 after all tax and license fees. The machine has the 3 year warranty. Gave them the Star card and I was off with $119 a month payments and 9.9APR, ok for a toy. The day prior I had my 02 Polaris 700 stolen so I called the dealership in St. Cloud and found Diggers to be a couple hundred cheaper so I bought my second atv from them. The first machine was a lemon and with the OLN aftermarket 5 year warranty Diggers did all they could to save me the thousands of dollars over the four years I owned it. It would be safe to say $2,500+ of work was done to it and after the $600 for the warranty I paid $150 out of pocket. The new machine is really a monster but I wish it didn't have the baby receiver hitch on it, but the easy winter starts make up for it.

SomethingFishy* Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I think the reason you don't see many prices listed is because it is up to you to negotiate what a "good" price is with the dealer. I believe it is also a proffesional courtesy to nhot always divulge what they are willing to do for one person as it may not be the same for the next, there are plenty of guys who just don't try to negotiate a whole lot that the dealers may make a little more $$$ on so that they can make up for the hit on a previous deal. Just my thoughts. Quote: I see all these people say they got a good deal, but I don't see any prices! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
