Have had my Tracker 800 SX since June 2020 and really enjoy the ease of entry and exit. Just discovered a major issue that everyone should know about. I purchased my machine at Bass Pro in Nashville, TN and had my break in service done at the Nashville Service center. Used the UTV for hunting last fall and then put it away for winter. Got it out today to play in the snow and found that the cooling system was frozen. (that Polar Vortex in Feb of 2021, brought us 8 degree temperatures here in western Kentucky.) Called Nashville service and they report they do not put any anti-freeze in the system when they do a service , just check the water level. I cannot believe anyone sells a water cooled machine without insuring antifreeze protection in a new machine. So here is the bottom line. If you buy a new,$13,000 Tracker 800 SX do not assume it has antifreeze in it. I appears you must take the new machine home, drain the radiator and then put in your own antifreeze.
