Polaris RZR 1000S pressed into utility work

[MinnesotaEric]

I have an original Polaris RZR (2008?) and I use it on my rural property a LOT. If I need across the property quickly-- nothing beats it. If I need to go patrol the perimiter or check fences, etc.-- nothing beats it.

I frequently put a shovel, rake, chain saw, whatever in the passenger side and then go do some work. It's much easier carrying that kind of stuff compared to the tractor.

I sometimes stack a load of wood on the back, but admittedly there is not much room there. I do use a 4x8 utility trailer behind it-- filling it up and bringing the debris to a central area to be chipped. I'm careful not to tow too heavy of a trailer-- I'm leery of the drive mechanism getting overtaxed and my trailer hitch mount is something just above a joke.

When I bought it, it was the lightest machine with the biggest engine on the market. So, yeah, it is fun too ...

I hear you. A 100hp golf cart with 15-16" of suspension is fun! Even so I popped on a couple of inexpensive grab handles on the right side of the roll cage so I can sling my pole saw and a pole saw extension (not pictured) if needed with a bungee cord as well as carrying a chainsaw in the back. Super handy and quickly gets me anywhere on my property including places I cannot bring my tractor. Also, in low gear, I've used it for boat handling which is way easier handling than jumping into my truck.

I have a RZR 900s (same machine as your 1000s in a 900)
We ride it often. Can't say I use it for utility much.
