RANGER Teams Up with Tyson Durfey, David Dudley and Lee
and Tiffany Lakosky to Commemorate its 20th Anniversary and Celebrate
The Owners That Helped Reach This Milestone
MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
For the past two decades, Polaris RANGER® vehicles have
become reliable workhorses for Americans doing a variety of jobs in some
of the most unforgiving conditions imaginable. In 1998 Polaris
revolutionized the side-by-side category by debuting the RANGER
6x6 vehicle. Since then, Polaris has continuously set the
standard for utility side-by-side vehicles with its industry-leading
capabilities and celebrated rolling the one-millionth RANGER off
the assembly line in Huntsville, Alabama, in 2017.
To recognize its 20th anniversary and Polaris’ position as
the No.1-selling utility side-by-side, Polaris RANGER will
celebrate the stories of the owners who made this milestone possible.
Polaris is calling upon owners to submit stories about their hardworking RANGER
for a chance to win one of three ultimate RANGER experiences.
“While Polaris has been a player in the powersports market for nearly 65
years, we first cut our teeth in the side-by-side category with the
groundbreaking introduction of RANGER two decades ago. Since
then, we’ve grown to define and set the standard for every category in
the side-by-side market, with RANGER continuing to lead the
utility side-by-side category year after year,” said Kyle Duea, vice
president Off-Road Marketing, Polaris.
To support the 20th anniversary of RANGER, Polaris has teamed up
with champion tie-down roper Tyson Durfey, professional angler David
Dudley and TV hosts and professional hunters Lee and Tiffany Lakosky to
create the ultimate RANGER experiences. Throughout the month of
May, owners are encouraged to submit a video or 300 word-max story about
their RANGER and what it has helped them achieve for a chance to
win an all-expense paid ultimate rodeo, fishing or hunting adventure
hosted by these professionals for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. To
learn more about each ultimate RANGER experience visit RANGER20th.com.
“We are celebrating two decades of innovation and best-in-class vehicles
thanks to our devoted customers that continue to make RANGER a
part of their daily lives,” Duea continued. “The 20th anniversary of RANGER
is a celebration of our customers and Polaris’ continued commitment to
deliver the hardest working, smoothest riding vehicles that help owners
get any job done, from farming to hunting. We are excited to honor them
and hear their stories.”
“Creating the RANGER was a team effort. Innovation and breaking
new ground does not happen without the people on the team -
contributing, listening and pushing,” said Mitchell Johnson, son of
David Johnson - one of the founders of Polaris. “The culture at Polaris
is one full of passion and an overwhelming desire to help people create
lasting memories and experiences with our products. We are looking
forward to hearing our costumers stories and learning about how their
machine helped them push the envelope or finish an epic project.”
