Finding small trucks are no longer available for purchase in the USA (Ford Courier etc) I had been looking to import a small truck from another country, but there seems to be problems registering one of these (smog). The problem I have to overcome is a sharp turn in my drive in front of my garage. I could not do the turn in a Ford Ranger. Someone suggested a UTV. They are street legal in my state, so that works fine.
I would be driving around town, occasionally hauling appliances, and moving snow. Off-road capabilities and some rugged trips to the mountains would be a big plus.
Having very little experience with UTVs or ATVs, and never owning one myself I looked through all the specs and can find no problem. My question is what limitations would I likely run into using a UTV as a small truck? The two likely candidates (based on top speed and hauling capacity) are the Arctic Cat Prowler 700 HDX and the Polaris Ranger XP 900 LE.
