'99 Kawasaki Bayou 220. Bought it new in August of '98, and it is used mostly just for hauling deer out of the woods. It has hauled out tons of deer, and one time 3 at once. One on the front and 2 on the rear. I like it's small size as it allows me to snake through the woods where the big machines cannot.

 

Other than normal maintenance and batteries, I have only had to clean out the carburetor one time over the years. I put an inline gas filter in it after that, and never a problem since. She is an oldie, but a goody.

 

Here are a couple shots of it when I was turkey scouting a few weeks back.

Im probably going to get something similar to this soon. Sold the Polaris, it needed a lot of work done and it just wasn't worth spending the money on. I like the smaller utility atvs. I've owned a recon, a timberwolf, and a Suzuki Ozark. Probably get another recon, looking for one with electric shift. I like the smaller size being able to get in tight spaces easier and maneuver better. Most are pretty peppy, just lack top end speed but about 45-50 is probably as fast as they can safely handle anyway. The light weight makes them feel pretty sporty too and helps if you get stuck, just get off and push it out.

2014 Polaris Ranger 800 LE ... It's still stock, but I do have a few toys on my Christmas list.

 

She's getting a 4500# front winch, when she goes in for her first service ... Anything you think might be cool to do with it, shoot me a link in a PM.

Here are some pics of my Kawasaki KFX700's. Both are far from stock. The red one is a 715cc with custom cams, a 40-shot of nitrous, and a +8" extended swing arm among many other mods. The blue one has a built motor as well, just not as aggressive. I also have 2 more that I just picked up to build up for trails because these 2 mostly ride only sand with the occasion trip to the sand drags, grass drags, or ice drags.

This is my 2011 Honda Foreman. Simply put, this is a great work horse. It has hauled home many loads of firewood, taken me trail riding, and on hunting trips. It might not be the smoothest ride out there with the solid rear axle, but I love this machine.

It has the factory windshield, 4000lb Warn Vantage winch, Aluminum under armor (with stick guards), QuadBoss deluxe rear seat, both rear/front bumpers have been LineX'ed, Garmin GPS (with RAM mount), and Kenda Bear Claw tires. I love this time of the year the best as it allows me to spend time on the back of this bike hunting and firewood cutting.

Spent 20 years on a cotton farm before I got it from my grandfather. The kids think it is cool because I have pictures of me and my brother on it when we were about 5 yrs old; It was in a little better shape back then. Never been in the motor. Still runs like a champ.

    • You have to have the last word. 
    • I am sure that was quite the pass experience and not a great place to experience during the winter when the conditions are not good. I've seen video of that pass and also more detailed information and pictures about the wrecks at that one hair pin turn where tractor trailers have flown right off the cliff and I am sure from all the warning signs that you know the exact curve that was !. After all there is a reason why a song was made about Wolf Creek Pass !. By the way and I didn't realize this either when I bought my truck as its nothing I even thought of that would be programmed into the cruise control and this occurs in either the basic or the more advanced cruise that controls your distance behind a vehicle and that is the brakes going down a hill are being applied as soon as the vehicle goes a certain speed over the set cruise speed. While it certainly does force downshifts in the transmission as you found out with cruise on while going down hill, its also dragging the brakes as needed to keep the speed controlled to what the cruise was set to. For me, I find that unsettling simply because I have no concept then as to how MUCH brake input is being used a and just how hot are those brakes getting and the wear factor as well. I can see that system getting a person into trouble on long mountain grades while pulling a trailer as it would not only be standing on the brakes of the pickup without any driver input, it would also be automatically applying the trailer brakes and it could cause a run away unit by overheating the brakes. Its one thing on a shorter hill and if the driver allows it to do its thing but on a long mountain grade is where things could get so out of hand. As someone a while back on this forum said, they had someone following them at night I believe on a down grade and had the cruise set and the person behind them could see the brake lights being energized all the way down the hill. I figured when I saw your comment that you didn't know and would have no way of knowing that your truck was applying the brakes and that you would and rightfully so assume you only used the brakes when you pressed on the pedal to slow down more than the cruise set speed for the slower sharp curves. So its good knowledge to know this about the newer GM trucks, certainly when doing any descending on long mountain grades. In the future try kicking off the cruise and use the the manual mode on a pass to see what that is like as I know myself when I first experienced it I thought no way can this engine be holding me back this well and tried the same hill in manual mode and sure enough the engine was revving way up and still could not hold the trucks speed down like it could in cruise mode.    Fuel mileage, that is where a really low sleek type of car can do better at higher speeds, certainly it starts sucking fuel too but a tall pickup is pushing massive amounts of air and also allowing a lot more air under it and the tow mirrors as in elephant ears pushing through the wind  as well. Driving like grandpa is about as good as one can do when driving one of these if trying to get the best fuel economy they can. I bet these trucks would get the best mileage they can if driven on a freeway in Florida if not busy traffic at a sedate speed and that sea level elevation without hills, vastly different then Colorado !.
