The day you buy the thing is always fun, but what’s also fun is waking up the next day and remembering you bought the thing.

Always been a fan of the Xterra, and you did right with the color and manual trans

Well done!

That is a good sight right there, a reliable manual 4x4 in the correct color for a 4x4 (it's green!) sitting in your driveway ready for adventure!

I did. I hadn't touched it in a year so it had to go.

Thanks! That tiny quad is not only a family heirloom, but the very first model of 4- wheeled ATV. It rides and handles kind of like garbage, but there's a huge nostalgia element to it lol

Is that early 80s? I bet it barely comes to the top of the tires on a modern quad! I’ve got an old fourtrax 300 4x4 that I will likely have for years to come . I don’t think you can even buy a small basic quad anymore.

At least I only have to pay for 2 K02s instead of 4. They ain't cheap.

They basically made them all through the 80s. It is about the same size as a modern youth quad.

I heard that. It got me to wondering, so I checked for my Gladiator, and they’re $210/each in my size.

Yeah, I kinda want one for my kids now. the 125 caught my eye as I don’t remember ever seeing one smaller than 200

They’re not terribly difficult to find and pretty cheap. I learned to ride on this one at around 12.

Ha. My oldest is turning 11 at the end of the month and I hadn’t figured out what to get him! Maybe that would get him off the computer for a bit.
