Wow are you kidding me! But then again fords have been made in Mexico too! I like the names of their new factories "manufacturing centers of excellence", now if thats not an in you face "im better than you" I dont know what is!

Polaris already has Mexican quality quads, they might as well move there. And just think how much money they can save by not having to put them big fancy "Made in the USA" tags on them. Its really a sad story though and I feel sorry for all the employees that are going to lose their jobs because of this.

Hey kipes didnt we have this "made in USA" talk a while back!? Granted I would never want to own a polaris but Im not totally against them.... well thats pretty much out the window now. Thats really a shame because for those owners that had them and will continue to buy them, they've lost one of the main reasons to own it. "Made in USA" Its a shame and shame on polaris.

I feel exactly the same way, I think we can safely say now that the USA doesnt make any quads no more. Yes I know my Honda was made in the USA buy Im talking about the profits they make on them, they all go overseas.

Yep, thats a **** shame. At a time of economic instability we want to give jobs to other countries so a few big wigs can get a bigger christmas bonus!

I was going Polaris next because they are American made. I'll stay with my Jap bike, thanks. Unreal, I try to only buy American made but it is getting harder and harder!
