ATV Experts

[pontifex]

Any ATV experts out there?

I'd like to get a utility ATV for plowing snow in the winter, doing yard work, and just riding around.

I know nothing about them. I've looked at a few things online about buying any ATV but still kind of lost.

Any recommendations for my uses? looking at best bang for the buck. Would probably buy used though.


Also, is it possible to get some kind of mower deck for an ATV?

Sounds like you need both if you can convince the wife.

Make sure you check the weight limit on any ATV you are interested in. Most ATVs are not designed to handle heavy snow plowing or heavy carrying. If you do, expect the clutch/transmission or engine to fail soon. This should also be in the Garage Section.
