Learn how to winterize a UTV with simple tips for battery care, fluids, tires, fuel, and storage. Get your side-by-side ready for winter riding.

For some UTV owners, winter means parking the side-by-side until spring. For others, the work doesn't stop when temperatures drop. There are still trails to ride, livestock to feed, and hunting spots to check.
Whether you're putting your UTV away or keeping it busy all winter, a little preparation now helps avoid problems later.
To winterize a UTV, start by checking the battery, fluids, tires, drive belt, and suspension. If you're storing your machine, you'll also want to take care of the fuel system and protect it from moisture and pests.
Here's what to check before the cold weather arrives.

How to Winterize a UTV: Cold-Weather Prep and Storage Checklist

Learn how to load a deer into a UTV with a game loader. See how winch-powered loaders work, their weight limits, and what to look for before buying.

Getting a deer out of the woods is hard enough. Getting one into your UTV, especially when you're hunting alone, is another story. A big buck is heavy, awkward to handle, and even harder to move when you're dealing with mud, uneven ground, or fading daylight.
A UTV game loader makes deer retrieval easier by using a winch to handle the heavy lifting. Instead of wrestling a deer into place yourself, you use a mounted lifting system to help get the job done.
Here's how game loaders work, why they're useful for solo hunters, and what to look for when choosing one for your UTV.

Are power running boards worth the upgrade? See how they compare to fixed steps for lifted trucks, including ground clearance, off-road use, cost, and comfort.

A lifted truck looks great, but climbing into one every day isn't always easy. Add a few inches of lift, and suddenly getting into the driver's seat takes a little more effort, especially for kids and shorter passengers.
That's where power running boards come in. They automatically extend when you open the door, giving you a lower step into the cab, then tuck back underneath the truck when the door closes.
For lifted truck owners who want easier entry without permanently mounted steps hanging below the cab, power running boards are worth considering. But before spending the extra money, here's what you need to know about how they work, ground clearance, and whether they're the right fit for your truck.
