Default Quadski

I would never want one myself but I wonder how long it will be before they are in Alberta?

To the quad owners:

Would you buy one?

No I wouldn't buy one. I don't think it would stand up too well as an atv. It would be great for crossing the river just upstream of where Don is fishing though

Where are the rod holders built into the car? Do you troll in first or second?

The 'rod holders' are the little Munchkins in the back seat. And I always troll in first, unless I got a headwind.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this post but you did touch on the only practical use I see for them. "Conservation officers" need all the ammo they can get, these would allow them to get into places where a lot of poaching occurs.

If used responsibly (and legally), there shouldn't be any problems with F&W Officers. Sorry, I can't say for the 'bleeding hearts'

For cost, you'd better have at least $40,000 in your back pocket; http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/...ve-ride-review
