If you’re in the market for a UTV, you might be considering buying a used model. Check out our helpful list of pros and cons below before visiting our dealership in Monee, Illinois to grab your new-to-you UTV off the lot!

The Pros

Cost

The most obvious benefit of buying a used UTV is the cost! UTVs are not cheap, and they can be difficult to find if you have a limited budget. This makes used UTVs the perfect option for anyone who’s a bit tight on cash or looking to save a bit of money. 

Customizations

Many UTV owners will customize their vehicles, either with unique stylings or helpful features. As a result, the used UTV market is extremely varied, and you can find vehicles with unique customizations installed by previous owners! 

Reviews

First-time UTV buyers do best with used models not only thanks to their affordability and decreased depreciation but also because there are so many online reviews for models that have been on the market for a while. Reviews can provide helpful information on a UTVs performance, handling, and even mechanical issues. If you’re looking to make an informed purchase, we advise going with a used model!

The Cons

Maintenance

Used UTVs are going to require a little more care and attention from their owners than a new model would. This doesn’t mean that your used UTV won’t be reliable, or have a long service life. It simply means that you’ll have to check and service your UTV more often. You may also end up purchasing a few common replacement parts sooner after your initial purchase. 

Equipment 

There is a reason that new UTVs are released periodically every few years. As equipment advances, new models are produced to allow enthusiasts the very best in performance and speed. If you’re simply looking for reliability, a used UTV is perfect. If you’re looking for the best on the market, we encourage you to look through the new models instead.

Whether you decide a new or used UTV is right for you, we hope you’ll visit us here at Gina’s Motorsports of Monee to grab your model. We proudly service the city of Chicago, as well as Kankakee County, Illinois, and have a massive inventory of both new and used models.
