8 Tasks For Off-Road Vehicles

Off-road vehicles are great for adrenaline-fueled trail riding - but that's only the beginning! They are built to handle tough terrain, which allows them to tackle an impressive range of projects. We've gathered up our favorite practical ways to use off-road vehicles below. If you want more ideas or want to explore off-road vehicles for sale, head over to Langston Motorsports. Our dealership is based in Perris, California, and we also proudly serve those in Temecula and Orange County.

1. Prepare Soil For Planting

Not all soil is immediately ready to support crops. Sometimes, the soil is too hard and firm for successful planting. Attach a disc harrow or drag harrow attachment to your off-road vehicle, which will allow you to break up tough soil and then smooth out its surface. Another option is to use a disc plow or chisel plow to cultivate the fields.

2. Plant The Crops

The more crops you have to plant, the more tedious this task becomes. No one wants to spend hours on end scattering seeds by hand. A much better solution is to add a spreader attachment to your off-road vehicle. Quickly and evenly distribute seeds throughout your garden or field.

You can also use this approach to evenly distribute fertilizer across the soil. Help support crop growth without breaking your back!

3. Carry Supplies

You could need to transport heavy supplies across your property, such as fertilizer, tools, or feed bags. Walking them over is exhausting and time-consuming, especially if you have multiple loads to transport.

Off-road vehicles offer a better approach. These models come with plenty of storage space, allowing you to easily load up your cargo. If you need even more space, you can even upgrade your off-road vehicle so that it can tow a trailer.

4. Create And Improve Roads

If you rely on paths and roads throughout your property, an off-road vehicle is a great asset. Pair it with a front-mounted blade attachment and you can level dirt or gravel on paths, roads, driveways, and so on. It's especially helpful at fixing eroded trails.

5. Quickly Reach Your Destination

The larger your property, the more time it takes to get anywhere. Sure, you could walk. But this is tedious and tiring, especially if your terrain is rugged. Plow over obstacles and challenging terrain quickly and easily with an off-road vehicle. 

6. Feed Your Animals

If you take care of livestock, an off-road vehicle can help you haul feed to them. Off-road vehicles are more compact than your commuter vehicles, making it easy to drive into the barn or through the fence gate to efficiently unload the feed.

7. Maintain Your Yard

An off-road vehicle can be a great resource for mowing your yard. Simply add a mower deck or pull-behind mower. Enjoy the comfort and agility of your off-road vehicle and whip your grass into shape. You may want to invest in lawn-friendly tires so that your lawn doesn't get disturbed in the process.

8. Build A Fence

An off-road vehicle can conveniently carry all the fence-building supplies to your destination. Then use a rear-mounted wire unroller to unroll the wire and quickly build a fence. If you need to take out rotting fence posts first, use the off-road vehicle's winch to do this in a flash.
