My first Argo configuration advice and questions.

[scimanstev]

I think I just hit the jackpot!

I was looking at the local TV station news, and saw that in Northern NH, where it is legal for Argo's, they have a yearly event.

Thousands arrive in North Country for annual Jericho ATV Festival

It is today and tomorrow, so there is no way I can go without my yet to be ordered Argo, but next year, I'm there! I downloaded the trail maps, and it turns out that there are 1000 miles of connected trails. Tomorrow, I will visit Barrows Argo, and make plans to order a highly customized, red Argo! I had no idea that this place would be so good! I can hardly wait to find the deepest mud pit, and drive right in with my Escargo tracks!

I am about 30 minutes from home. We are just getting back from Barrows Argo, and I am very impressed, and not only saw my first Argo, but road, and drove one. This was one if the best days I have had in years.

That's a beauty and nicely rigged! I like the suspension seats!
Was that a 2017 model? And how much was it?

[scimanstev]

It's actually older, and a European model, with side mirrors, horn, turn signals. I can't remember the year, but that one is for sale. I didn't ask about the price, but riding in it, made me smile so much, my face hurt. We went up a huge hill, across it, then down a 60 degree incline right through the bushes. Mine should be delivered to my house by October 1'rst. That was more fun that I could have imagined!

It was owned by a lady who had several of them, and died, so there is virtually no hours on it. It is older, but brand new.

What do they want for it.

[scimanstev]

I didn't ask the price, as I was too focused on getting the configuration of mine established.

I hope you get your machine soon. Just curious how long have you been growing the beard?

[scimanstev]

I am hopeful that my machine will be here by October 1st. The beard took me about a year and a half to grow, and I have had it for about 15 years.

Here it is, almost 3:00 AM, and I am so excited about my future Argo, I can't sleep. The thousands of videos just don't do it justice. As Bob Barrows drove it around obstacles, and up the hill, I really became aware of the potential of this machine. When I felt the response of the throttle, and the turning capacity, I knew that a life long dream was worth all the time it took to achieve it. I cannot wait until mine is configured and delivered.

Is there any way to get in touch with these folks. I may be interested in purchasing this machine if its for sale.

Lol...I hope you can get some sleep between now and Oct 1st!
With the cooler weather today I went up in my woods and finished cutting my Argo loop trail...it's not very long (maybe a half mile total) but long enough to get my Argo fix when I want one!
