Looking at a Polaris Ranger or Yamaha Rhino as they are the two closest dealers. I'm not opposed to a used machine but I'm finding limited selection as apparently everyone wants one of these things. What I have found, I consider to have too high miles/hours to really invest in. So can anyone offer pros/cons and what would you consider high miles/hours (keeping in mind I'm not a mechanic). I'm mainly interested in riding from one end of the farm to the other with chainsaw/tools/fencing/etc. I'm not looking for the "biggest baddest can pull a wagon of hay" one available but I do want 4x4 and would like a dump bed (electric?). I do not want a crew sized machine. My Dad is 74 and won't ride an atv/fourwheeler, but he would drive one of these.
I know this is like asking "what is the best tractor" and I'm going to get 100 different answers. I'm just looking to get ideas and opinions and of questions I should ask when I start seriously looking at buying and what are some common issues.
