anyone here have one.... how are they??? 1cheff.gif sraptor.gif

Test drove one at Gordons when they first came out. Was a little under powered when climbing in sand. There were a few issues with them early on but I think they worked all those out. Front shock mounts breaking, wheels hitting rear fenders.

Beyond that, I've always thought they were pretty cool.

I think there's a suspension upgrade available if yours didn't already come with it.

its brand new, this last bunch joyners seem to be way better than the first ones..

I just wanted the trooper for the dirt... it has the same motor as the sand vipers that are 500 lbs lighter

granny gear and 4 wheel drive will be nice...

jeez king, How many joyners you own?

So what's the scoop on Joyner? I read on Buggy News that Team Joyner filed BK and that they had a fire sale at their place.
It's a real long thread:
http://buggynews.com/alert-alert-alert-pro...usa-t17741.html

Anyway, if you think you'll need some parts in the future, seems like now's the time to buy 'em if you can find them.

And to answer your original question, I did hear good things about that particular model. Good luck with it!

And keep the rubber down. icon_cool.gif

Got me I have no idea what was extra or what it was worth. You know Barrett-Jackson some one will think it is neat and pay too much for it.

i sold the trooper..................
mr bad
My buddy has one. Nothing but problems! Everything from th esuspension breaking, front 4wd unit going bad 4 times and the they sell them with cheap mud tires in the south west. He regrets it every time he gets towed back to camp from a Rhino, which is evey trip. And I think they did go BK or another company buying the parts warehouse or somthing.

He was like a dear in the headlights with it on how many features it had at the price. Everything on it is made so cheap and that thing weighs a ton.

I hope you have better luck with yours!!!
mr bad
Oops!! Just noticed you had sold it!!
