Default Help picking a Ute...

I would say a used 05'-06' King Quad or a Cat V2, I think both of those are pretty good pics and have all the items you listed. You can generally find The kings brand new in the 6 grand price range. I would say the new King powered cat but I doubt you would be able to find a used one and as I recall they are priced like can-am's are when comparing new machines.

I have never had any problems the times I have started my Polaris SP500HO using the pullcord. Maybe Catterman needs to bulk up a little and build some strength in his arms. BTW...I have never had to use the pullcord due to a breakdown or battery failure but just to make sure it works properly. Whatever quad your Dad decides on will be okay cuz they all make good products.

i know my 500's have a compretion reless so if i ever have to use the pull cord i flip it and it pulls so easy! i think an arctic cat would be great for you more than the pol for one big reason the 4x4 system, pol back wheels HAVE to spin before it will engauge,the cat is in when you flip the switch. also if you plow down hill then try to back up the pol disengauges and the cat wont.

What trucks spin 20% then lockup? I lock in my hubs (live axle on ATV's, not needed) and shift into 4x4. Bam it's in, can't say I'd like it to spin 20% then lock up. Sounds a little rough on the drivetrain.
