Wouldn’t a second hand 4 wheeler be more cost effective for 6 months?

Maybe, but my apprehension is that most guys would shy away from a used machine for hunting. But I don't really know as I have never hunted with an ATV.

I would likely only put 120 miles on a new machine in 4 months and discounted 10% I think that would be attractive deal to an ATV hunter. I would think the "key" would be to purchase exactly what hunters need in a machine.

The other problem is I don't know anything about buying a used ATV. Clearly, I don't even know anything about buying a new machine.


ALASKA is a "HARD COUNTRY for OLDMEN". (But if you live it wide'ass open, balls'to the wall, the pedal floored, full throttle, it is a delightful place, to finally just sit-back and savor those memories while sipping Tequila).
