Wife and I have nearly made the decision to sell the ATVs and put that money towards a side by side. Especially with out new little one, think a good UTV will be much more reasonable to use for the family.
Initially I wanted the Kubota Sidekick, cause of their financing deals, and we want more of a utility one over sport. Don't want like a Rzr or Teryx kind of rig. Problem with the Sidekick is that nobody in the state of MI seems to have them in stock and can only guess at 1-2 months out for delivery of one. Outside the state (that's not way down south) doesn't seem to be much better.
The one that did catch my attention is the CFMoto Uforce 1000. Mainly because of the price, they're much more reasonable than like a Polaris Ranger, plus the Uforce 1000 comes standard with things like a winch, roof, windshield, where the ranger you have to buy them separate (with the base price already 4k more as is). I know back in the day CFmoto was kind of a junk brand, but seems like lots and lots of people love them now; as their quality have seemly gotten tons better. Lots of good reviews on them for the 2021/2022 models. A good friend just bought a Zforce 500 Trail, and while i'm not a huge fan of that one in particular (it's too small for me, and it's very loud in the cab) I chalked it up to the size being a 500, and the trail size for being too small. I read lots of good things on the Uforce 1000, and some bad about it being jerky at takeoff.
Any thoughts or experience on the Uforce side by sides? I honestly haven't' really looked into other brands, we have a yamaha dealer right in town, but their prices kinda suck too, though the Honda Pioneer 1000 seems to get good attention. The sportsman will be going up for sale probably this weekend; going to purdy it up first.
