Wanna see where these things are Built???

Here is a link to some photos of me in the factories http://www.atvwholesaleoutlet.com/html/slideshow.html

This may be fun to see. Many people wonder what the factories look like where they build these ATVs in China. Most are really quite clean, and well orgonized....

Yes Doug, this is strangely familiar to the one you posted a few weeks ago!

Interesting!

Well organized, indeed!

The first time I went to China was in 1983. I spent 7 weeks traveling to many remote rural areas. Americans were quite a novelty to the Chinese in those days. And learned just how nice it is to have running water (let alone hot water).

I didn't go back to China until 2007. What a difference! From donkey carts to BMW's in just 24 years. It is really quite amazing. The last trip I went to Qinghai province (near Tibet) where it isn't quite so advanced as the east coast, but they have the hot water thing down pat at least.

I have visited only a few factories (not off road stuff) but it is clear from the ones I've seen that quality and reliability are very important to them. I was also very impressed with the equipment (new and state of the art) and the knowledge of the workers.

Whether or not one likes the new globalization, it's here. I don't see it as going away anytime soon.
