TUFFY SECURITY LOCKBOX REVIEW
Whether in the bed, on a trailer behind, or tossed into the seat next to you, hauling your gear is what you bought a truck for. The problem is, it’s not what one would call organized by any standard, and there are some things you don’t want wandering eyes to see. This is especially true during hunting season when we’ve often got a gun case in the back. Luckily, we’ve found an excellent solution to ... Read more
CURT ECHO BRAKE CONTROLLER – Product Review
Visit any riding area and it quickly becomes evident that Side by Sides are a major factor in off-road recreation, and for good reason. They’re easier to drive than a dirt bike or ATV, you can share the ride and trail exploration with a companion, and they’re just plain fun! The downside is they are also much larger than most other off-road vehicles, with some nearly the size of a Jeep Wrangler, and that means ... Read more
NAPIER SPORTZ SUV TENT REVIEW
ATVs and Side x Sides are all about exploration but there is no better way to get up close and personal with nature than to camp out. The crew at Napier understands that better than anybody and they have a complete lineup of tents built specifically for vehicles that provide stylish, secure shelter for beyond where the pavement, and often times even the road ends. We recently checked out their SUV tent on a weekend ... Read more

POLARIS SPORTSMAN IGNITION FIX
Tom Keifer of the band Cinderella once belted out a great 1980’s power ballad with what are probably some of the most truthful lyrics ever. “Don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s gone”. Whether you’re a farmer, a hunter, or just a plain old off-road enthusiast, it’s easy to become very reliant on your ATV. Over time your regular routine even becomes dependent on having a trusty ATV to haul you from place to place, ... Read more

FLY RACING COLD WEATHER GEAR REVIEW
COLD HAND CURE – TWO NEW GLOVES and an OLD TRICK Riding year round is great, but when the weather is cold you have to be prepared. Your hands are typically one of the first places to feel the cold, and this is especially true for off-road riders since they are either on the end of a set of handlebars, or wrapped around a cold steering wheel. Ordinary motocross gloves won’t cut it, and snowmobile ... Read more
SUPER ATV SNOW PLOW REVIEW
Living in Pennsylvania, we enjoy every season and each offers its own special beauty. Even winter can be magical and with it one can expect several months of snow. Sometimes it’s only an inch or two, and sometimes it’s a mountain, but you always have to be ready to move it out of the drive. We can grab a tractor to do the job, but they’re not the most nimble, and you’re just as likely ... Read more

RED BADGE of COURAGE
There are some tools you want to own, but rarely want to use. A winch is one such tool, and when standing knee deep in the muck while your friends laugh from the sidelines, it’s not only a mechanical wonder, but also your new best friend. You tend to be a little more brave when the red badge of WARN is stuck to the front of your machine. WARN products have been plucking people out ... Read more
OTR WHEEL ENGINEERING

OTR WHEEL ENGINEERING will do that and more! From their international headquarters in Rome, Georgia, OTR has grown into a wheel and tire powerhouse, supplying tire and wheel combinations for everything from lawn and garden equipment to giant mining trucks. ...

EMP BED COVER
The great thing about a Side x Side is you can haul a cooler, camping gear, tools, or practically anything else in the rear box. The bad part is, all your valuable stuff is still exposed to the same mud, dust, and grit from the trail, and nobody likes sliding into a gritty sleeping bag. Truck companies solved that problem years ago with bed covers, but only now has one company created a solution for ... Read more
