That’s all I could afford with the rates I was paying those crooks. I think they’re based out of Parker. Beware
When you brought you son in we got his Jet Bote' insured and at a fair price I might add. I bet that was the first and only time that you've seen him smile after spending money. ...then again I think you paid the bill! :)

When we adopted him, he looked so cute. He eventually spent all of our retirement money which is why we had to cut off his jeans and turn them into shorts.

I would have given him back to old school boats or just left him on their door step!

Good to know it's a reputable company. 👍🏼

I noticed all the wordage for jet skis, motorcycles, etc.

Standard extended warranty agreement. It's definitely not covering the Whole car.

I was reading today that this warranty company has questionable reviews..

When I purchased my warranty I thought it was speed selling the warranty themselves.

Either way we will see how it goes.. I am very excited as my cars are getting closer

You should re-read the entire page as above this it states 1. coverage and Diamond. It doesn’t state items not covered as you are suggesting.

I'm not Suggesting anything. It's all there in writing for everyone to see.

It's an aftermarket warranty not honored OR provided by Speed.

And just like the warranties they bomb your cell phone with all day, it's not going to cover the Whole car as some people sadly thought it would.

And...

Just because you have that piece of paper in your hand, it's not a requirement that Anyone HAS to honor it!

Most repair shops make you pay up front, then submit all the paperwork to the company yourself, so you can reimburse your wallet.

No dealer has Any obligation to honor it.

The good news is, I'm gonna guess Most people buying These cars, probably know how to turn a wrench pretty well. 👍🏼

If nothing Major goes wrong, (hopefully) you'll never need it! Just like buying any warranty, it's a gamble.

The only response RG has bothered with on all RDP Speed UTV threads has been take RD for one hell of a ride in a test car with hours & miles on it. His response has been working his ass off 24/7. :)

All the warranty companies are about the same. It is all about the dealer and how they fight for you to get things covered.

When are you expecting to get your first Speed car?

Warranty won’t matter if you can’t get service or parts. Speed UTV or anything else.

I’m actually tempted to jump into the Speed car bandwagon as a pure race car only deal for me and our team.

Our chase truck is jam packed with extra parts of everything. We can damn near build a second car with all the parts we stock for a “just in case” scenario.

Robby and his team show up with a semi truck or three of parts and support staff. His race support program could be a game changer.

I’d have to assume pretty soon? 113 and 326 are the first two

Hopefully the kids won't have to go back to school before you get it.

Head north young man. Duck Creek would be an Awesome summertime destination. Joe's Valley would be even better, but that might be a bit far, and though to get reservations for, this late in the season. Lots of north bound options to explore. 👍

I don’t think Dave will have his before the sand show

It was only 9, mine did not get here yet, but my buddy will be getting his in the next 2 weeks.
Just curious, but if the last 9 vehicles are arriving in Havasu with their accessories already installed (per Robby on Instagram) why do customers have to wait two weeks?

because they have like 4 people working there. they likely need to do alignment, fluids, and remove whatever acc they customer doesnt want and install the ones that didnt come on the car. they need to get the dealer moving asap!!

Some people saw Robby and his team at the airport. They were on the way to Asia. People are guessing there was a problem with the 9 cars that just came in. Hopefully this doesn't mean more delays.

Not all of the accessories are installed, there are still a few that are being done here in the US.

They are also doing PDI on them, I'm not sure what all that entails.

How does a Canam or RZR arrive at a dealer? I know they are in a crate but does the dealer do final assembly? Or are they ready to go minus fluids?

Created with no roll cage. Strapped down with suspension compressed. All accessories are done at dealership.

There is some dealer set up. That cost is real

Good grief...

Talk about starting rumors! 🙄
Same guy sat on his couch harassing the guy converting his Bus to RV. Not going to mention names,builder might want privacy. When Bus was completed builder completed round trip coast to coast trip with family in total comfort. Incredible RDP build thread and YouTube.

Saw this on FB. Shop in mesa az has one for 65k. Chassis #81

Real pricey for a toy. I can see if there is a spec series to actually race at this price but a bunch a fat asses cruising around in the desert pretending to have a race car seems steep...

I'm sure my comments are about to rustle some jimmies. LOL!

P.S. Totally agree. So I guess I'll be #2!

What's going on with the CARB situation? CA People still on the wait and see?

I'm curious is all. I hate those fuckers @ CARB.

CARB has been approved since Feb.

Last response from Speed was that by car number 150, they would be caught up with the Cali orders and all the remaining deliveries would be in numerical order.

Crazy they are down to 65k. The 90k figure is out the window.

This guy has about 45-50k into it not including sales tax and registration. So he is still making a decent profit at 65k

I think it is encouraging that they fly 22 plus hours just to handle a couple little updates. Say what you want, but that's dedication to work right there.


Most CEO's would just email, or phone, or have a subordinate handle a couple little updates. Couple means two.

He is not really in Asia. That was just a rumor started by me. There are no updates as well. Another rumor I started.

Wow, rumors? Seems like it came right from the source that they in fact were in asia, and handling updates.

They’re going to sand dunes in Mongolia after that to do some testing for a few days. Actually, he said destructive testing.
