Subject: Re: UTV vs. Mini truck


I work on a larger farm and find the Ranger with the cab better than driving the truck. I can cross rivers (not to mention check for beaver dams) and hide the Ranger in the bush line while I am working a field. Fence checking is easier as I can use the box for tools and wire. I also will pull a trailer full of fence posts and have the tractor follow me to push them in where needed. If I run out, it's quicker to zip home and get more.

Side note, we also use the ranger while hunting and fishing. It allows us to get into places a truck can't. There are a few lakes up in the hills that we have access to and we go hunting in swampy, beaver dammed areas.

Our Rangers have winches front and back but we've only used them twice in the last three years. Once when we hit a beaver run and had the Ranger tipped sideways with water over the seat and the other time was to close a v-rake when it broke.

Only downside I have with the Ranger is the poor turning radius.
