I'm going to get some kind of atv in the nxt. year or so and am looking at everything that is out there. I'm going to get something used and as cheap as possible. Was wondering how you guys liked this type of atv. I don't really plan to do any food plots but will use a trailer to take ladder stands in and out of the woods before and after the season. I don't know how they are set up but assume they come in a 24 volt and 36volt systems. Anything I should stay away from?How durable are they? Any models with decent ground clearance? Are there any out there that are not wide like most tat I've seen. Maybe about the width of a 4-wheeler? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks, Scott Woody

I like mine, but all it is used for is quiet transportation. I haven't tried to pull anything. I do plan to add a bed to it. They also come in 48v systems. Electrics are heavy(1200-1300lbs). You will need a heavy duty trailer to haul it. They basically are all the same width(wider than atvs). You can add from 4" to 8" of lift and bigger tires to them. On electrics, you need to swamp out the control module($380 part) or it will experience thermal shutdown when being driven at slow speeds. I love mine.
