So my wife has decided she would like to ride solo, we presently have a foreman450es with mudlites. My thought is to buy bigger for me and she could ride this one or should I buy something along the same size. She has not driven the quad much more passenger than anything. So what do you think guys and girls:confused:

I used to have the same quad , foreman es. It was great BUT i would buy her the grizzly 550, auto and very comfy ride, it is what I bought. Enough power to get through anything but not too much that could scare her. About $ 1500 less than a 700 grizz. ES with the shifting can get a newbie in trouble going up bigger hills.

you know when you buy the new one she will won't it and you will be stuck with the old one that just how it works, women. unless you like sleeping out side and cooking for your self. get a king quad a little cheaper and easy to maneuver and a good quad.

Whoops, I did'nt read the original post properly. If buying new for yourself, King Quad 750! I really like mine. If buying for her, Kodiak 450.
