THE BOSS and Polaris Industries Inc. Team Up to Bring Work Versatility
to Popular RANGER Side by Side Series

The Boss 6' Straight-Blade Poly Plow
Minneapolis, MN (8/17/2007) - New Accessory Package for Booming Side by Side Market Features 6' Straight-Blade Poly Plow and THE BOSS' Innovative SmartHitch 2 Attachment System

THE BOSS Snowplow, a company known for pushing the edge of innovation on products for snowplow removal, today announced a collaboration with Polaris Industries Inc., a pioneer in the booming side by side market, on the launch of a new 6' Straight-Blade Poly Snowplow and SmartHitch 2(r) attachment system for Polaris' 2005-2008 RANGER side by side vehicles.

Available at Polaris dealerships starting in September, THE BOSS Snowplow for Polaris is designed to easily tackle projects for the home or job site giving side by side owners the flexibility to reach areas where traditional plows cannot go due to space limitations or rugged terrain. In addition to developing its first snowplow for the side by side market, THE BOSS adapted its proven SmartHitch 2 Attachment System for the Polaris RANGER to give homeowners and professionals the time-saving benefits of a fast and efficient attachment system with the ability to maneuver with ease.

"Our new product for Polaris and the side by side market is a natural next step for THE BOSS, and the opportunity to work with the company that has set the standard for quality and performance in the side by side market is an added bonus," said Rick Robitaille, marketing manager for THE BOSS Snowplow. "THE BOSS has a proven track record designing high-performance snowplow equipment for downsized vehicles, so we're thrilled to be taking this to the next level with a custom design for the RANGER. The power and versatility of the Polaris RANGER and the easy hookup of THE BOSS snowplow using SmartHitch 2 technology will make quick work of any plowing job."

"THE BOSS plow will complement our side by side accessory offering," said Chris Witte, product line developer for PURE Polaris. "Polaris RANGERs are known as the 'hardest working, smoothest riding' side by side vehicles and the addition of THE BOSS plow to our accessory line up ensures our RANGERs work even harder."

Standard features of THE BOSS 6' Straight-Blade Poly Plow include:
  • SmartHitch(r) 2 Attachment System
  • High Performance Hydraulic Package
  • SmartTouch 2 Hand Held Control
  • Poly Blade
  • Sloped Profile Undercarriage

Attaching or detaching the plow can be done with little to no physical effort with THE BOSS' SmartHitch 2 Attachment System. A simple and quick attachment means users spend more time plowing and less time getting ready to plow.

Part of THE BOSS Snowplow package, the SmartTouch 2 Handheld Control is the easiest-to-use handheld control in the snowplow industry. The handheld control is designed for right or left hand use and requires less button pushing than competing products, features an express up-and-down capability, and also has a built-in sleep mode. The handle of the control can be removed providing several different mounting options.
