Hello Tim, I bought a AXIS 500 as well in deep South Texas and use it at the ranch and it’s a great work horse. Currently been using it for deer hunting and gets the job done. I replaced the head light to LED an is much brighter also installed a winch between head rest on the cage to load the deer to bed with no problem. Over all it’s a great tool for the ranch and to have fun.
Who works on them locally? I haven't heard anything good about them. Mostly people can't get them serviced or fixed when they break. Seems no one knows...
