I've been looking for an UTV for a farm.  I have a problem with the ones I've seen (Polaris and Honda) in that my inseam is 37 inches and it's going to get quite painful for me given the terrain.  

Yesterday I looked at a Polaris North Star.  I'm not going to pay $40,000 for a farm utility vehicle, but the salesman said that's about the largest they make.  It's still too cramped and, again, would ultimately become too painful to drive.  

Suggestions?  

Thanks.

Haven't sat in one to check out the room, but have you checked Kubota?  

that's what i was going to say, the RTV900 i've driven has a little bit more room for the legs, and the cab is taller.

The Kawasaki Mule FXR, all of the single row seating Side by Sides of all makes have a bit more legroom, I am only 6'5" with a big belly, as in 300+ lbs and my TransMule 4010 barely has enough room.  Part of the trade off is the bigger the cabin the smaller the bed.

The Kobta single bench seat is a beast, pricey, and the diesel is a bigger beast and more pricey.  But heck, everything is ridiculously expensive these days.

 

Good luck, I bought my first Mule in 1998, wrecked it in 2011, and the replacement is better still.  Fuel injection and power steering is great for a 75 year old fat man.  I expect this one to last the rest of my life, but I must have one.  13 years is a good long time to own anything mechanical, but my tractor is 40 years old, my pickup 20.  I am not one to give up a vehicle just because it has some age to it.  I have never known a man to regret buying one.

 

Again, Good Luck

That's OK. Just think about the ribbing I got through school. Jolly Green Giant was a regular, as was "how's the weather up there?". I outgrew both of my parents, as well as everyone else in my family, on both sides.

      Is there a code reader available for the Coleman UTV 400?  I tried using the HUD ECU Hacker software and cables/adapters but no luck OBD to delphi 6 pin and KKL VAG as well as ELM327.  Will not connect.  I was able to get it to connect randomly a couple of times, but haven't been able to since.  I was able to clear and read the codes briefly.  I'm aware of the Tiny Scan 301 but it doesn't seem to be readily available.  There's a few out there but they are expensive.

      I want to ditch my Kubota RTV-XG850 and its moronic twitchy throttle design flaw, get rid of the problematic engine and the 40 mph purposely throttled speed.
      So far, I'm looking at the Honda Pioneer 1000 and the Polaris Ranger 1000, both of which have 1000-1500 lb payload bed capacity.
      What other makes and models should I be looking at?
       
      Thanks for the help!
