Gear Up For Spring With The Right ATV/UTV


An all-terrain vehicle, also known as an ATV, is a 3 or 4 wheel vehicle that is operated by a single user.  A utility task vehicle, UTV, is a small, 4-wheel vehicle that seats 2 to 6 people.  Choosing the right machine can help ease your workload and improve your lifestyle during the upcoming spring season.  But how do you know what recreational vehicle is right for you?  It’s all about the features, specs, and capabilities!  

When trying to decide if an ATV or UTV is best for your needs, consider these aspects:

Weight and Size
Do you need a vehicle for work or sport?  If you want a vehicle for recreational fun, consider an ATV with a high horsepower to weight ratio.  ATVs are small and can easily maneuver outdoor trails.  If you need a vehicle for towing and cargo, you’ll want an UTV with more weight.  UTVs offer less flexibility in driving but are better equipped to carry more materials.  

Safety
According to The Nature Conservancy, an inexperienced operator is 13 times more likely to have an accident than an experienced operator during the first month.  Choosing a vehicle with safety features can make all the difference.  For example, a UTV provides seat belts, side doors and even enclosures while the safety features of an ATV is limited to a helmet.  

Fun
Experience counts when riding a recreational vehicle.  No matter what you need a small vehicle for, don’t forget to choose the option that allows you to have fun in your daily life.  Whether you choose an ATV or UTV, you can always expect an enjoyable experience!
