Bad boy, new and improved???

After we had so many problems with them (mainly the lack of service manuals/parts unless you're a dealer) we just gave up, and never bother with even the newer ones. We can build a proper TXT for a lot less that is far more reliable and easier to service.

Understood and thanks for the feedback. I don't see much online activity now which tells me they don't sell many anymore so am amazed they keep making them. Years ago you could see all kinds of reviews (mostly negative) and feedback online but hardly anything since 2013.

I love all the Polaris EV's we own except for one issue. We need a cart that can handle severe terrain that is very rough and so vertical that gas units barely make it up. Problem is the EV's cuts out and overheat badly in anything over 60 or 70F. Maybe no electric can handle it but we want to try something else. Trying to decide which way to go Initmidator 48volt or new BadBoy. The EV's are great except for this one issue. We are getting awesome range from them as well.
