I want a buggy
should I buy one, or can I build one? I have not built anything in a while, I assume it would cost less to build one. Anyways I want one now :P

Don't get trapped in the "costs less to build" trap. Build if you want to let your creativity flow and have design issues that you can't meet with a
buggy you would purchase. Getting the design right can also burn through cash and or cause you to be less than satisfied with your buggy.

It will not cost you any less to build i know i built and i didn't get carried away
but i also have a buggy that is taylored to me and i am a big guy i love my buggy and owe thanks to van for offering parts and support for the build
also without popeys videos i wouldnt have gotten it right the first time
so my advice would be ride a few and see what you like first then build or buy:bigok:

shoot me a message. I have a number of buggies here, a few more in process of shipping and a line on a couple of used locally from friends. If we
don't do the crazy run to Wildwood NJ leaving tomorrow afternoon then we'll be buggying this weekend at Wasaga. I might have to do a trip to T.O.
sometime soon to connect up with another guy on some buggy stuff as well.
