Rhino 250 availability
I purchased a TaoTao Rhino 250 this week and I got a call that it was out of stock. It would’ve been nice if the website was current on the availability but whatever. I have two questions

These dealers all pretty much dropship, so they are all selling out of 'the source'. It might take time (months) before they become available again.

I know the raptor 200 I'm waiting on is at least going to be until the end of January. I think that's doubtful too with Chinese new year and all. It takes a while for the boat to get here from the factory to replenish US stock. Long story, but if a dealer doesn't have one on hand then you're going to we waiting until the factory sends more to Tao Tao U.S. distribution.

Just got a call from the shipping company today and my raptor will be delivered on Thursday. So it looks like a least some Tao Tao atv s have made it here.

Awesome. Maybe they weren’t blowing smoke when they said around two weeks

Found one a week ago
Pillihp, I started looking for a Rhino right after Christmas and was told mid Feb, March. I happen to find a place that had a few left. I was looking for a black one but they only had blue. I ordered it on Sat 1/4/20 and received it on 1/10/20. It was manufactured 10-2019 so it wasnt a old left over... You can give Birdys Scooters in ID a try.... BTW I received a blue one and the first thing I did was sand it down, primed it and painted it metallic charcoal grey, and finished it with a gloss clear coat, came out awesome... Good luck with your search.
