What's the most cost effective way to go. Rail, sand Jeep, used quads. Anybody got something to trade?

Easy to store, uses less dino piss, cheaper up front cost, etc.
(easy to resell when you're done)

Rick nailed it. Easier to get small ones for the kids, easier to upgrade later if you decide to stick with it....

Where is the closest place you can use them?

I got a VW Baja that is a little pissed off. But quads are a good easy way to go.

Keep in mind that you have to drive three hours to ride them in sand. I think moses lake is the closest. We opted for trail quads or utility quads, since there are more places to ride them on this side of the mountain, plus you can hunt off them and use them around the property to drag trailers and stuff.

call me and ill give you more than my .02 and answer any and all your questions...I really should not be answering this post cause i should be in the sand right now 360-280-0759 kurt

Sport quad is probably the best, most universal choice

A sand rail with a turbo worked over bug engine would be the most economical sand rail to get. The most fun would be a 4 seated with an ls1 or other ls number. I've gone down to Florence and winchester bay so many times. To get a taste of a sand rail go down to Florence and rent a rail for an hour or 2, a guy drives it for you it's a lot of fun. It's like being on a roller coaster. Give the guy a 20 after you are out there a bit and tell him to open it up. Those rails are Subaru powered with 180-200 hp. I've been in one that was dyno'd at right around 475hp. It was a rocket, we were going 30 or so and the dude hammered the gas and the front came up and we rode it on 2 wheels for a couple hundred feet. He also jumped the hell out of it. They are so fun.

just change the tires out

Go big or go home.

Advantages of a dune buggy over a quad:
- Either can be towed, but quads have to be trailered while buggies can be flat towed.
- A dune buggy is driveable locally since it's road licensed.
- The whole family can be in one vehicle (until you trust the little ones to go off on their own).

I could make you a deal on this one:

with these tires/wheels (plus another pair just like them):

This man thou shalt know. Ask him and he shall anoint ye with knowledge of dune-age.

I went stock sport quad with paddles---mod sport quad with paddles---dedicated 3/4 stoopid dune quad---full retard dune quad---full retard dune Jeep---mod sport quad with paddles.

My scoot of choice is the Banshee. The newer stuff is great too but that bike is an icon in the sand for good reason.
