Any OB'ers have experience with a Beast or Textron EV buggy?

Polaris Ranger EV is good. Decent speed, good torque in low range. On board charger.

Have driven a Textron gas, seems like a decent buggy.

You could probably buy a used electric with lift and upgrade if your handy with tools. Upgrade wires, controllers 2 speed motor. May save a few bucks

I had a ‘18 Ranger EV. It was perfect for hunting. However, some of our friends own a farm nearby and we take Sunday evening rides. Just riding with the kids, drinking some beers, shooting guns etc.

I learned real quick, the EV was not a bike to just around ride on. On flat ground, I could get about 10mi on a full charge. In mud, about 6mi, hills about 3. I traded it in on a 570. Now, my bike may not have even made it to the break in period.

Actually, at my camp, a couple of the older guys have stealths and bad boy. I pulled one of the Stealths up a hill after I drove around him in a creek bottom. The guys would ride with me time to time to stands and be blown away with power of the EV versus their bike. I would love to have another and use it for just hunting.

Bottom line, it’s a great bike. Perfect for hunting. But made to go and come right back, no detours.

Have not ridden in a Textron buggy but have no doubt they are well made.

I have spent enough time in their helicopters and planes and know what else they make for the military that I would be surprised if they were not very good machines.

I run one on a property that I trap for. One parcel is about 3 miles down a good gravel road from the main property. I've run around the main property, down to the other tract and back and still had 40% charge left. I'm figuring about 14+ miles and a mixture of gravel roads, hills and some mud. I was impressed.
