I'm interested in buying or rebuilding a UTV on about a $5k budget. I'm a metal fabricator, so re building a frame or something of that nature wouldn't be a problem. I've also done most of my own vehicle repairs and some small engine work. Have tools and YouTube.
I'd prefer an aggressive off-road style 2 seater, but I'd really like to also be able to haul some gear and maybe a mini trailer around my property (rarely) and I'm not against a 4 seater if fits the bill.
Could always fab up my own racks and such as well as like a modular trailer hitch. But with those parameters in mind what are some models you recommend looking into? And are there any specific sites like auctions (Arizona and surrounding states) or things like Facebook market yall recommend?
