Slate as Side-by-Side

[Johnny5]

I was wrenching on a Bobcat branded UTV the other day, thinking how similar it is in construction to our Slate. All the body panels are just juked onto a skeleton, that's in turn built onto a frame. You can get all manor of farkles for this Polaris/Bobcat; doors, winches, tops, engine upgrades, suspension. In the stock form like this one, it's really a pretty simplified machine. Since we usually compare and contrast our Slate to more bloated machines I thought it might be worth looking at it for a minute as a road going UTV.

I did a bit of Google, and found an article that talks about building UTV's more like the Slate because reasons.
