    Utv 4 seater

    Need a 4 seat utv for wife and young kids to use for fun, maybe little light work on a farm. What's most bang for buck- looking to spend 10-15 max for new? Thanks

    We have a Ranger at work that is an absolute beast. Fun and will go through hell and back.

    But these things are absolutely not something kids should operate.

    Power steering is a must IMO!!! I have the Ranger 900 XP and the power steering is great along with plenty of power.

    I have a '16 ranger crew 900 with power steering, couldn't be happier. I haven't driven a 1000, but the power of the 900 is great! I don't like trying to drive a crew through the woods to hunt though, might as well bring a Cadillac, she won't turn very sharp!

    Power steering is a must not only for the ease of steering but it also helps eliminate bump steer in nasty terrain.

    I have a Honda Pioneer 1000 with eps, no way would I ever buy one without it. On a long ride the bump steer will wear you out, when they are in true four wheel drive they are harder to steer and the resale value is better if it has eps.

    Well I'm buying it for a farm-it rolls like a golf course and I'd say it ll never leave farm. Anyway I've always been a yammie or Kawasaki guy and am now thinking a mule or Viking vi- suspect their all good. I'm waiting on boat/atv show next weekend to ck all them out

    I was just looking at the new Kawasaki Mules today. I have a 2010 Mule 610XC that has been flawless. The newer ones seem pretty nice for a decent price. Look up the Mule Pro FXT with EPS. It can either be a 4/6 seater or a 3 seater with larger bed.

    I have a regular Viking with 2,800 miles on it and love it.

    I own my own repair shop and all I have to say about Polaris is I will never go hungry and mite retire early.

    I had a Mule 610xc se for about a year. Put a bench seat in the bed for the kids. For 2 people ok. But traded it this year for a Can Am Commander Max 800 and it is much better. Hauls 4 people easily. Even towed a small trailer full of deer stands out on the farm. I really like the safety features for my kids. It won't go over 15 mph if driver doesn't have the seat belt buckled. Has set belts for each seat and a mesh skirting that buckles on the outside to keep anyone from getting bush whacked in the brush. It's been an excellent machine!

    Cannot go wrong with a Mule! We have a Honda Pioneer 1000 eps and it's a nice rig also. I added a throttle stop to the gas pedal to allow younger riders to drive it without worry.
