My wife & I wish to purchase a side by side. I don't want to spend a fortune but do have two concerns, the noise & heat level in the cab. The less the better. Any help with this is appreciated. Thanks guys..............Lynn

I’m a bit biased but a decent, used Jeep has always seemed a better deal than most SxS’s.

I think it's a Polaris with electric motor that a friend has out in CO. He uses it for his outfitting business. Very low noise. Very versatile. Heat depends on ambient temperature. In the winter you can use a windscreen to cut down on wind chill factor, eliminate it in summer for better ventilation.

Some are not cheap now for sure. I'm on the board of directors for a federal credit union. We were going over the board packet a few days ago. I noticed a loan for an ATV for $30,000. . I asked "what kind of an ATV costs that much?". The manager said it was a Side by Side. I hope it has an air conditioner and heater for that much. My goodness you can buy a totally restored flat fender jeep for that much off of Autotrader.

Even though I read the subject, when I started reading the message I was thinking "Fox 12Ga Double".

I'm with Doug. A 87-06 Jeep YJ/TJ is much less, more powerful, and can go to town for groceries.
i have used them a lot.Honda is the most reliable

but their side by sides are expensive. a good used yamaha rhino is nearly as reliable and pretty comfortable. winch is essential and we have a hard top, glass winchield and installed a heater etc. being in alaska. its a lot of fun, and we go places where no one will come along to help us.... so it has proven reliable, safe, and a heck of a lot of fun.
have had polaris and for the last 20+ years lots of friends have had them, but be prepared for lots of maintenance work and problems. more than a few of my friends have been stranded by them
ATV Stay away from Yamaha. Loud!
