Hello all......Just wanted to introduce my self as I plan on picking up a new Viking sometime this week or the weekend.

The name is Robert, I'm from central California and enjoy a variety of hobbies. I used to do a lot of track days on my '12 R6...which is now gone

, I wheel my 93 Grand Cherokee quite a bit and enjoy ocean kayak fishing.

Picking up the Viking to do some "wheeling" and just be able to enjoy the mountains and trails with the wife and the dog.

I'll be keeping a "log" thread for my progress, trips, mods, etc.

Hope to get to know all of you, sooner or later.

:cheers:

I just posted about some great prices in California. Where are you? I used to live in Pacific Grove.

Is that Laguna Seca? For about a year I lived close enough to see the track.

I live near San Luis Obispo.

And yes, that's the corkscrew.

Here is the cheapest New EPS I have found in SoCal:

$9,999
2014 Yamaha Viking FI 4 x 4 EPS
New, Work/Utility ATV, Steel Blue, 4-stroke, SOHC, 4 valves engine, 1 miles, 1,355 lbs
Murrieta, CA (~224 miles away)
Temecula Motorsports
(888) 312-7015

It is a pretty good price for CA so it might be worth the drive.

Thanks for the info....I've contacted a few dealers my self but I'm in search for the camo.

The lowest OTD price I've gotten so far for a '14 with EPS in camo is $14,499...........Still waiting for two other dealers to contact me.

I'll update as I get the quotes.

That's probably pretty good OTD.

Try this: atvtraderonline.com just type in Viking as model, your zip and pick 400 miles.

Sweet, just contacted a few more.

Berts Mega mall refused to give me an OTD price without me telling them what other dealers quoted me, lmao

150 Delivery cost to dealer
150 Prep
50 Documents Fee
25 Title
500 for the 4 year extended warranty
State Tax

Awesome. What deal did you find and where?

Discussion Starter · #17 · Nov 22, 2014

I don't think I got a deal per-se but it was the best price I found in a 250 mile radious

$14,499 OTD with a cargo/tool box thrown in as a bonus.

Thats not bad for California. Congrats. I was looking at the storage box but it is way too expensive, just like the under seat storage container. Have fun. Send some beach pics!
