We’re going to go out on a limb here and say you probably can’t remember what you got for Christmas last year..
It’s OK, we don’t think anyone can! Unless you got something really awesome (like a Quad Nation voucher) the chances are it got stuck in a draw and forgotten about by Boxing Day!
The same applies for all those gifts you spent hours searching the shops for, and that’s why we think quad biking experiences make the perfect present. After all, who’s going to forget the time they headed out on a off-road adventure?
By our own admissions we’re ever so slightly biased though, so thankfully there’s some proper scientific research to back up our belief that quad biking is the ultimate gift. A recent study by San Francisco State University found that people who spent money on experiences (rather than material possessions) were happier and believed their money had been better spent. So just giving a gift experience is guaranteed to make you feel awesome.
The brain boxes at SFSU aren’t alone in their findings either. Dr. Thomas Gilovich, a psychology professor from Cornell University in New York believes that experience gifts are more memorable because they have a greater impact on your life – and with 20 years worth of research to fall back on we’re not about to argue!
The doc’s got a point though, anybody who’s been lucky enough to blast through the countryside on a quad bike knows just how unforgettable it is.
It doesn’t take a doctor to work out that exploring the great outdoors is far more exciting than anything you’ll find on the high street though. So forget buying more clutter this Christmas, there’s only one gift that should be under your tree – and according to science it’s a Quad Nation voucher!
