What You Can Expect

A quad is a four wheeled off-road vehicle with a seat that you straddle, like a motorcycle, and is controlled by handlebars. This means you can count on a few things.

First, as an off-road vehicle, you can count on your ATV being able to take you where a typical car could not go. With the powerful engine and the tires built for off-road adventures, these machines are ready to get you to the far reaches of your property or the trail.

You can also count on it being relatively stable. Today’s models are almost exclusively built on four wheels, unlike their three-wheeled predecessors. This is because the four-wheeled model gives more security and is able to stay upright more easily. 

Keep in mind, though, the way four wheelers are built means you probably won’t have room for extra passengers. There are a few specific models that are built to accommodate two people, but for the most part, you should expect not to overload your quad with people.

Using your ATV

There are essentially two popular ways to use your ATV: for practical purposes and for recreational purposes. 

Practical applications include labor intensive work and projects that need to be accomplished on a fairly sizable property, even if it’s simply getting from one point to another in a short amount of time. ATVs also have impressive hauling and towing capabilities. This means if you need to transport debris or move tools to a different area on an unpaved piece of land, your ATV can save you time, effort, and a few extra trips. 

Another great practical application is using your ATV for hunting. While many hunters like to do most of their searching on foot, it can take a while to get to a particular spot. You might have to make a last minute adjustment and move locations. On foot, this could put you back hours. With an ATV, you can get to a new area and continue hunting without wasting too much time. An ATV can also help you haul your trophies home and make it easier to transport supplies and weapons. Not to mention, if you like to take overnight hunting trips, a four wheeler can give you the extra cargo space to pack all your essentials.

You can also easily use a quad recreationally. There are lots of ATV trails in our area and across the country. They range from fairly easy trails for beginner riders or you can look for something a little more difficult if you have the experience and desire to step up your game. Hitting the trails can be a great way to spend the afternoon or even an entire vacation! 

There are lots of models that will give you all the best parts for fast, agile trail riding, or you can get a quad that can do a little bit of everything, so you can work hard during the week and add some thrills to your weekend.
