The UTVs are evolving into something that I'm not fond of. They are removing the beds and adding 1,000 dog boxes. My fiend with the red setters called yesterday from south Texas. His tricked out Ranger broke an axes crossing a cattle guard. I much prefer my stripped down Gator with a 100 pound dog box and rigging. This is my second one and I've never left it in the field. Here you go.
Quail hunting is like walking into, and out of a beautiful painting all day long. Gene Hill

We have a Polaris ranger 6x6 and we wouldn't trade it for anything!!! Put it in AWD and it is like a tank it will go anywhere.

On serious note fold down window and Kevlar tires Any recommendations on a good fold down that does break the bank?
the thing about baiting is, even a rookie hunter could have a 170 bird season if they bait holes

Rear view mirror. Worth its weight in gold.
Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.

Roof and windshield are a must. Mine are made by Fortress. Very heavy duty. I stand on the roof to fill the tall feeders.
Reverse lights, Road feeder, Portable compressor, Gun Rack (I have the dual scabbard and love it, I also have the kolpin holder that bolts to the floorboard.).

Dang ours isn't that heavy duty. To fill feeders we just stand on the tailgate.

#1 thing I use most on the Ranger are the LED light strips I mounted under the roof on a switch. I got tired of not being able to locate anything inside that dayum UTV in the dark. The LEDs also put out enough light to see in the bed when it's dark which is helpful.

Cheap fix to the interior light is to go to Northern tool and buy one of those magnetic leds and zip tie it to the role cage. I bought 2 for mine it works like a champ. I have changed the batteries only 1 time in 3 years. Just like this -
