Are ATVs/UTVs overpriced?

I think it was in Dirt Wheels or 4 Wheeler or some such magazine where they had one for $52,000. Hard for me to imagine that. A number of UTVs in the $25 to $35,00 range.

Someone I know is about to buy one that's over $43K.

There are other ones out there for much less that would be more suitable for his intended usage, but apparently it has to be a diesel, and must be green and yellow.

It's a different version of mind over matter, I suppose.

Well, at those kind of prices for new UTV etc. I think it's best to stick with the Arctic Cat I bought for $700 little over 10 years ago!

It's just a handy tool that's all...

They are absolutely overpriced. You should see the prices here in Canada!

I bought a CF Moto recently because I REFUSE to pay Polaris/CanAm, etc prices. and I was happily suprised I like it better anyway.

But while at dealer I saw a price tag on a Polaris Ranger North Star Edition. It had the 84 month payment plan on it.

The uneducated buyer that can't do math that buys that baby will get to pay $88,000 by the time it's paid for! LOL

Everything is overpriced and especially toys that you don't need but buy for fun. My brother in law paid $260K for a SKI BOAT - yes, just a ski boat not a cabin cruiser or any sort of big boat. Absolutely unreal what people will pay for toys. And I thought I was crazy for paying $11K for a 4 wheeler.

I hadn't paid attention to Sea Doo's lately, but got a sales add from my local Bike/boat dealer in my email.
I was blown away by that too!! Almost 30 grand for a Sea Doo!!
And what really made me laugh was the features on it. Digital dash display and a BACKUP CAMERA!!! LOL
I guess it's too hard to look over your shoulder backing up your Sea Doo? LOL
All this useless electronic crap to drive prices up.

I agree, the gadgets really drive up the price. Same way with new trucks, a top of the line truck can almost double the price over the base model, same exact body and engine but all the gadgets double it's price. And people pay that which blows my mind!
