well sounds like your friends have crab probs i have two Arctic cat 300 4 by 4 and they start in -20 just fine one has 6000+ miles on it and it still go's just fine i have snow plowed with it for 4 year's with no probs. i would give them a good look

Better have them see a doctor.

Oh yeah!!!!!!!

A winch, good tires, a good gun boot and some type of luggage/storage bag and you are good to go. I use a soft bag, don't like those hard plastic and bulky ones.

ive got a complaint about my Polaris Sportsman 500. Dont take em through deep water! i got in a situation earlier this week where my only way out was forward and acrossed the end of a pond. The water ended up being 3-4ft deep and the 4wh was completely submersed. I made it all the way through it but right at the end as I was coming up on the other bank it quit moving. 2 days later I got it home and finally yesterday, 4 days later, it is starting to move a little bit. Apparently you arent supposed to get those transmission belts wet. oopps.
