Deciding to buy a side x side is one thing, knowing which one to buy is another. With the high number of choices, it can be difficult figuring out where to even start your UTV search. Here at Bright PowerSports, we strive to make your life easier. We created the following buyer's guide to finding your perfect utility vehicle. When you are ready to look at models, visit our dealership. We proudly serve those in Detroit, Lincoln Park, Wayne County, Oakland County, Livingston County, and Macomb, Michigan.
When shopping for a utility vehicle, the first step is to narrow down your options. After all, there are so many types and categories that it's impossible to consider every model. A great place to start is thinking about how you hope to use your side x side. There are two main uses: for work and for fun.
Work UTVs will come with high hauling and towing capacity. You'll be able to lug materials and tools to your worksite or remove debris. You'll also be able to travel over difficult terrain much faster and much easier than you could on foot. Your utility vehicle can save you a large amount of time and energy, helping you get your work tasks done.
Other side x sides are designed for leisure riding. These offer high speed and high agility so you can cruise around the backwoods trails chasing adrenaline rushes. These UTV models also offer features for rider comfort. After all, you'll be hitting the trails for hours. You don't want sore muscles and joints making you end your adventure early. Some UTVs can be upgraded with features such as a closed-in cab or terrain-specific tires.
Before you begin looking at utility vehicles, establish a clear budget in mind. That way, you'll avoid falling in love with a model you can't afford. It also helps you eliminate more options so you can focus on the ones you can buy.
You'll want to consider the value of a used side x side. Buying used helps you get a higher end UTV than you would normally be able to afford. You can find some quality used models that have been well-maintained.
When building your budget, you'll want to take into account any gear you still need to buy. If this is your first UTV, you'll be starting from scratch with gear and need to buy a lot. If you already own gear, now's a good time to do an inventory and see if anything needs to be upgraded.
It's important to account for the manufacturer since not all brands are created equal. Some are well-known for delivering quality while others tend to end up in a mechanic's shop often. Do some research to see what people are saying for a given brand before you buy. Make sure it's one that builds reliable, quality side x sides!
