I have a 100+ acre farm, mostly raising and selling hay. I want a UTV to use here. (currently using 4-wheelers and pulling a trailer) I have to maintain my hay meadows and grazing land, surrounded by about 4 miles of fence, which includes repair, trimming trees and brush, spraying for weeds, etc. This will be strictly a farm vehicle. I don't go mud riding.
Looking at a 2004 Kubota 900 UTV Diesel 4x4 with 300 hours. They're asking $6k. (a little high, I think) A diesel UTV really appeals to me, since I have a bulk fuel tank. (one less thing I have to haul gas for)
My questions are:
1. Was this a good, solid, dependable side-by-side, or do I need to run away?
2. If it's a good machine, what are the problem areas I need to look closely at?
3. If you don't think this is a good choice, which UTV would you recommend?
Thanks in advance for your help.
