I repeat: Has any on took actual delivery of one of these new Lapp Max's ?not just a. dealer trying to sell, interested to see if they are any better than original, and if any have been sold
They are not really sold until they are sold to a use, not just a dealer trying to sell them
your a BOT aren't you , or a broken record

Hey Argohunter,


We've been staying quite busy at the factory. Things are going really good. We post regular updates on our Facebook page. We had another large shipment of MAX 2 bodies delivered the other day with even more on the way in the coming weeks. Right now I'm working on reverse engineering the MAX 4 and Buffalo molds in 3D CAD on the computer before I send them off to start forming those bodies. We're looking to launch the MAX 4 and Buffalo in late May/June respectively.


We also ordered brand new equipment (3kw fiber laser cutter and a 110-Ton CNC Press Brake) to begin building our own chassis in-house, among other parts and accessories. Once the machinery arrives in May, we're going to go to town with creating new accessories, making upgrades, etc. Our plan was to get this equipment ahead of relaunching the MAX 4 and Buffalo (and perhaps the first-ever MAX 8x8!)


The new Uni-shift upgrade for the MAX 2 is AWESOME. I plan to have them available and ready to ship sometime in April.

Hey Andy, now that things are up and running, how are things going? Your sure getting going no matter what the some of these folks said. Congrats! Looking forward to see the NEW Max IV coming out. I'm liking the new shifter for the Max II. Hope someone posts their opinion of how it works out for them.

Would you honestly pay 14000 plus tax, shipping for new orange  50 year old design 6x6????  You can buy many other better off road machines. You can purchase mint condition MAX II and MAX IV;s off FB marketplace for $4000??????

I sure would like to see that new orange as an option, that iv upper looked awesome before I left fb. I think the springers will do well too, plus with the efi, they're going prove to be great machines. I can't wait until it's in the cards to have a brand new ii and iv parked in my shed.

How's that dream going?  I am sure everything's great, as EVERYONE has bought a new 50 year old machine.
I do like mine but there is NO way I would ever pay $15000.00 for a new machine that requires repair as often as these do. popcorn

Not giving credit where credit is due, Richard Clark has kept the MAX going, and your dreams.

I still say not too many people are going to buy a new 50 year old machine,  time will tell.  Ha ha....
