How To Choose A Side By Side
Ready for work or play, the side by side or UTV is a common sight on nature trails and construction sites alike. Whether you’re looking to off-road with the family or make your hard jobs easier with reliable and rugged transportation, you’ll benefit hugely from purchasing a side by side. They’re fast, fun and great for families looking to add a little more adventure to their lives! Big Country Powersports in Bowling Green, Kentucky, has all the details you need on how to choose a side by side.
What’s The Purpose?
First, you should determine how you plan to use your UTV. If you’re going to be solely riding recreationally, you’ll want a more agile model capable of handling narrow trails and muddy off-roading conditions. However, if you’re more interested in its actual utility capacity, choose a side by side that’s bigger and heavier with a more robust suspension for handling heavy payloads.
Either way, you should also be mindful of how many people you think you’ll want to take along for the ride. Side by sides can fit anywhere from two to six passengers. Bear in mind that the more seats you need, the higher the price will be.
What’s Your Budget?
Second, you’ll need to factor in your budget. Set an amount that you know you can afford to spend so you can outrule anything that’s way too expensive. Don’t forget that you’re not just paying for the UTV itself! You’re also going to need to budget for accessories and riding gear, especially a helmet, as well as insurance and future maintenance or repair needs.
If you really want to go for more savings, consider purchasing a used model. You can find plenty of great side by sides that have very little wear and lots of life left in them at a cost that can be hundreds or thousands less than a comparable new model!
