Off road gokart/buggy
Just picked this up to have fun with the kids and grandkids. We have lots of trails to explore here that I won't take my truck for fear of getting stuck. Will be good fun for the kids. It came with the trailer and has a little 200cc motor and the parts to put a 420cc motor. Gonna try it out as it is then decide on the motor swap (I know that will happen ). Looking forward to spring to take it out. Should be worth the smiles and miles we'll get out of it

Looks like it's had a good amount of use. Pressure wash, grease everything, and check all nuts and bots

It is great to get the kids outdoors. Not sure what happened when I was young you had to sit on me to keep me inside. Kids today you need a bag of frozen marbles to get them out of bed. At least they get some exercise rolling around trying to get away from them.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!
Looks great, I have driven, never owned-cheap bastard thingy, from ATCs (three-wheelers), ATVs, and the new four-wheelers with multiple seats. Always a blast, they go a whole lotta faster now, so be safe, wear a helmet and a harness. Enjoy, and remove any of that pollution crap!! |

We've always done outdoor things with the kids and grandkids, from boating to hiking, camping, hunting etc. We never let them just sit around playing video games or on their phones all day. Sometimes they grumble but soon as they get going they have have fun. Our girls, now in their thirties with babies know and enjoy being outdoors and way from the screens

Good deal first thing you want to do is pick it up and wiggle and feel for play in the wheel bearings. A buddy of mine bought one like that the kid took off and a front wheel came off and the kid did a cartwheel.
The right front looks a little cocked. |

I bought my grandkids minibikes. Got one 50cc, two 100's, and two 200's. They love 'em. Our back yard isn't big enough for carts but the bikes do pretty good.

I will eventually. Probably wait until I build a barn. I like the Ranger but would consider a Kubota or Deere. There are so many choices. Honda. Yamaha. Kawasaki. Can-Am.
They have ev Rangers at the farm where I worked. Mostly for the hunting aspect. I kinda dig the diesel versions. |

I bought an off-road go-kart like the OP's for my grandsons a few years ago. They absolutely love it!! Keep an eye on them though. My oldest grandson broke his arm when he flipped it during a 'race'. He was driving it again the day after getting his cast. He decided that his broken arm was a badge of honor!!
