From what I recall the safety course was available to those who bought "forgein" made ATV's (Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki) for a discounted price. Been years since I taught the course but I still have all the material. Polaris and Bombardier were not "entitled" to the discounted training due to their north american affiliation and could "show" a video instead.

From the training I learned a shitload of information... A little to late considering I lost dear friend to an ATV accident

Damn man...I'm sorry you lost your buddy

It is important to be safe on them things but sometimes freak accidents just happen unfortunately

Yes they do but in his situation it very well could have been avoided. He was an unfamiliar rider on a ATV, very little experience and had not gone through any training. His accident was a very unfortunate accident but from the investigation that was conducted he was a very novice rider and some familiarization of the area and the ATV could have prevented the accident. He ended up taking a turn to fast and to sharp. The result was him falling off a 150 foot cliff with the ATV. He was rescued off the shore with a faint heartbeat and gasping for breath... He was pronounced en route to the hospital in a Coast Guard Helicopter by his coworkers.

Am I the only one that thinks that Hilux looks awesome?

That motor sounds good. 1400 max torque, 3200 max HP is a pretty decent powerband for a diesel. I wonder what the redline is.

As for full size trucks with diesels, don't knock them until you've ridden in a tuned Duramax or Cummins with a straight exhaust. Dang they haul! Torque is addictive. I like the 6.4 Powerstroke in my work truck, but I'm also looking forward to the 6.7. Looks to be a stout motor.

Ive ridden in the D-max cummins 6.7 and the 7.3-6.4 Powerstroke By far my favorite on is a 6.4 with the spartan 310 tune DPF delete...*drools*

But those days for me are gone...I love my Taco too much.

But the most important question is, does it have the rear leaf and the tailgate TSB's?
