Sadly, Those days are long gone. With the current Idiot and Chief and his cronies running the show, we will have perpetual inflation, supply chain shortages, environmental insanity, devalued currency and corruption. All of these things raise prices. Elections have consequences and we are now suffering from those consequences. It is part of the plan to eliminate the bulk of the off-road community. The long term goal is to "Save the Planet", and part of that goal is to stop all use of the outdoors that involves anything more than your feet. It does not matter if prices "come down", if no one has the confidence or the disposable income to purchase these machines. Just as racing has been turned into a rich man's sport, so also the SXS hobby is being transformed into the same. The goal is to marginalize the masses, eliminate the average person and reserve the playgrounds for those who have the cubic dollars required to participate. When the average buyer is struggling to put food on the table, a roof over their heads and gas in their vehicle, this does not bode well for ANY portion of the outdoor recreation industry. Their stated goal is for those of us in the "poor unwashed masses" to own nothing and be happy about it. I don't like being political on a supposedly non-political forum, but this is a problem based solely in political corruption, subterfuge and intrigue.
