At
Mountaineer USA
you have two choices in shipping. You can
purchase your unit in its original shipping
carton like we received it from the
manufacturer or fully assembled. Each has
its advantage and pricing benefits so you
need to choose which is best for you. Plus
you can always pick up your unit at our
warehouse assembled or still in the shipping
carton in Northwest Arkansas.
For ATVs the
original shipping carton will arrive by
truck in a steel frame carton wrapped in
cardboard. The truck will be at dock height
so we need to know if you need a lift gate
for delivery.
Once the ATV
arrives you will need to unpack the shipment
which takes about an hour and then begin the
assembly. The assembly will be to bolt on
the four wheels add the handle bars and
mirrors if it is equipped with them. From
there you will check the oil, add regular
gasoline and do an overall check of all nuts
and bolts. The total time for unpacking and
assembly is about an hour for our
technicians so maybe an hour and a half for
your first time.
This method
saves us a great deal of shipping cost.
The second option is for us to assembly the
ATV and ship it on a platform that will
arrive to your destination almost ready to
ride. You will need to check the oil, add
regular gasoline and check all bolts that
may have come lose in shipping. Since
nothing can be placed on top of the ATV this
shipping cost is more expensive but easier
for you to begin to enjoy your ride.
Mountaineer
offers the same option for the RTV-150 but
to assemble the RTV takes about an hour
longer due to the roll cage. It is
just as easy to assembly but there is just
more to assembly. The easiest for all
of us is to pick up your unit in Northwest
Arkansas. We can have your unit ready
to ride and in your truck or trailer in not
time. Plus we can give you a complete
walk-around of your unit by our technicians.
