Which four seat UTV will offer the most head and leg room in the drivers seat?

I am purchasing a new toy hauler and also a new or used UTV. The first thing I will need to look at is can I fit at 6’7 and 350lbs. Then I will have to worry about turbo or non turbo etc. I figure I will need to fab a seat bracket to lower and possibly move the seat back. I will also need a wide rear bench for my three little girls who are 4 and 5.

Once I have the UTV locked in I will then know how much garage space I will need in the 5er.

RZR PRO like mentioned had the most room for me. I am not fan of the look but it was the most spacious of them.

I'm 6'6" and pushing 400. I spent a year back and forth with this subject. you are definitely limited to the Can Am...but even then....I determined I would still need a ton of custom work to really be comfortable and safe. there is a guy that converts 4 seaters in to 2/3 seaters and does a bad ass job with it but its a minimum of $7k in work. Once I started adding it all up, having that much in to just a dirt toy wasn't appealing. So instead I'm spending twice as much building a blazer lol

Go talk to Scott at Desert Works in Montclair. He builds his own seats, and can work with you to figure out a set up.

My driver’s seat is lowered. My step son in the pic is 5’10”. I’m 6’2” and have plenty of room even with PRP seats and helmet.

Funny you say that I was thinking of doing an OJ prerunner Bronco instead of a RZR. But then I would need to pull the 5er and the wife would need to pull the Bronco behind her Suburban to the desert.

That’s close to me since I’m in upland. I’ll swing by and talk to him.

Thanks

I don't suggest it unless you want to piss money away fast. Once it started its snowballing fast. Mostly because once you do one thing it starts the dominos. Then of course the shit talking starts with friends and next thing you know you are spending F*** you money just because. but once its done, there won't be much out there on the average that can do it better.
