New feature for 4 wheelers?

I think we have all now hear of a quite intresting feature on SOME of our 4 wheelers known as UOM (Underwater Operational Mode) which allows an ATV to be run while completely submerged in water.

Well it seems that now there is a feature which allows you to find little lost children.
At this point it is know as a S&RL (Search & Rescue Locator).

Forrest Nunley, 43 of Utah, wanted to check out the capabilities of his new ATV while participating in the search for 11 year old Brennan Hawkins, the Boy Scout who had been lost since Friday. Forrest was climbing higher and higher up the side of a valley 5 miles from where the boy was last seen, when he suddenly came upon the boy, muddy and wet.

I have been unable to receive any cooperation in having the UOM installed on my ATV. So, maybe I can get it outfitted with S&RL? Is this feature exclusive to the make of ATV Forrest was using? If so, what kind of ATV was Forrest using?

In the past an individual that has already replied to this post(can you figure out who?)posted about a polaris quadbecoming totallysubmerged in a lake.He then bragged about having to swin down to the quad to shut off the engine since it was still running.

Hey Shootem, I don't want to speak forALL Polaris, but mine has not been the "POS' you referred to- I would take mine over any Honda any day of the week- but Honda does make a decent machine.
