I will not ever be able to justify the price of those... for what they cost you can build a clone of brays truck even a explorer version but everything else the exact same. Plate it and drive it there wheel it and drive back with no worries

I'm with Kris on this.

My brother in law has the two seater RZR, and it is cool for bombing around in the woods, parks, backyard, etc; it kind of sucks for hunting and utilitarian uses. He uses a pop-up blind and it has to be put in the passeneger area, with his crossbow or rifle in the back "bed".

Plus now, with their second kid here, here is looking to upgrade to a four seater (hasn't decided between the RZR or a four seater SUV), but for the cost its hard to beat a beater Cherokee, Explorer, B2, etc.

I can't use SUV's where I hunt... atv or sxs only. It's Corp of Engineers land.

I know, I know...
it's still gonna come down to my decision tho! lol

I'm liking the awesome explorer Idea... but the Rzr's are just to fun at the offroad parks.

$15'000 worth of fun? I dunno i dont see it. I agree they're a blast and all that but in my eyes arnt worth anywhere near what they want.

Buy a used atv for 3500-4000 and dump the other 10g into the ex i bet you can do it with 3-4 grand left over for gas $ lol (and broken shit)
