I think its a good concept, but the execution looks a little off to me. If it suits your needs for a light ATV/mower - cant beat $2900. Did you get the extended warranty?

I live in Wake Forest, NC just picked up mine for $2100 from Lowe's of Elizabeth City, NC.
My F-i-L bought one too so we compared our Ravens. While his had signs of mold/stains from sitting out in the back for who knows how long, mine is in much better condition - though a few problems I've noticed already. Supposedly, Lowe's sent these Ravens back to get worked on, but I must have gotten a lemon.
Problem #1: Surging when on battery power
Problem #2: Engine stops after about an hour of use
Problem #3: Dry-rot front tires
Problem #4: Oil leaking from the oil drainage (saw oil in the garage this morning so I figure I check)
So far, I've attempted to contact Raven America (who is just a few hours away from where I live) and I get nothing. I've emailed and have not receiving any correspondence back, also called - but the phone just rings forever and eventually hang up.
At this time, I'm not very pleased with the product nor the company and I will give Raven America until this weekend and if my MPV7100 issues do not get resolved - it will be going back.
Per previous comment, "if it suits your needs for a light ATV/Mower - can't beat $2900" is absolutely true. In my case, I paid less than that, so between a mower + light ATV + 7100 generator is definitely a good deal if I can get all of its issues fixed then it will be golden.
Perhaps someone from Raven America monitors this thread and will reach out to me :/

Good luck with the Raven. They should have painted them lemon yellow. They also have excellent no customer service. Thank God Lowes took mine back.
