The wolverine is a good quad And it is a 4x4 All you have to do is put a warn 424 on it and then he can go from 2x4 to 4x4 depending on were he is riding. and it is all done by the pull of a ****. so it can be changed in seconds. they can be jumped and go pretty fast. just an idea. It comes with a rear rack and but you can take it off so you pretty much have a sport 4x4.

The prarie is too much. A wolverine sounds like a great choice. Kind of like a yamaha warrior with 4wd. Get a warn 424 like was said, and he'll be very happy. Even a new one should be availible near or below 5k dollars.

Should be able to pick up an eiger for that kind of $$. Most who have one seem to really like it.
