Edit: Any experience with UVTs made by American-owned companies?
I searched for American made UTV's and these are what came up.
Polaris John Deere Arctic Cat Odes American Landmaster Mahindra Cub Cadet
Anybody have any experience with American made UTV's aside from Polaris? Looking at the smaller ones (comparable in size to a Pioneer 500).

Edited original post - what about US-based companies?

Arctic Cat built a hell of a machine in 2004-2005. 650 had a Kawasaki motor in it that would make stupid power. I had two. BRP had decent atvs but that Rotax motor was the cat's meow!

Thanks guys. I probably know more folks with Rangers than any other brand with the Hondas right behind them.
I wish Polaris would put an engine brake/descent control in their smaller rides, but I know you can work around that. Would be nice if Honda would put some kind of bed on the 500.
I was mistaken about the Cub Cadet, their UTVs are made in China; I guess their lawn-stuff is US made?

Doesn’t Polaris make most of there engines in the USA. They are also the only American company in that list are they not. Seems It is the most American UTV ATV you can buy. Sure are a lot of folks that are all for American made until they go and spend there own money. Buy you a Polaris
If you're gonna be stupid you better be tough.

I hope they don't ever quit making kawasaki engines, where ever they are made.

Not sure. Had a Polaris atv and utv. Ok but I think Polaris needs to back their products better with warranty. If I ever buy another atv or utv it won’t be a Polaris. I hear some dealers don’t even want to service older models which is bs. I don't know about warranty. But some of them (like the Razr) is damn near impossible to work on. I think they set up the engine and transmission, then build everything else around it. You have to completely disassemble the Razr for just a minor repair.
