Purchasing an ATV is a new and exciting experience. The only thing that tops the fun of buying a new ATV is decking it out with your own personalized customizations!

For all your 4 wheeler needs, visit our dealership in Athens, Texas, also near Tyler and Jacksonville!
Storage
No ATV is complete without a cargo box. It is inevitable that you’re going to need some extra space for storing necessary items. If a cargo box is a little too big for your liking, or if you want easier access to your gear, then you might consider a cargo basket instead. You can conveniently add cargo basket onto the back of your ATV to keep your gear at arm’s length. Whether you go with a cargo box or a basket, you won’t be lacking in storage space for your must-have tools, food, and other essential supplies.
Winch
You absolutely must invest in a winch for all your ATV escapades. The last thing any rider wants is to get stuck in the mud, lose traction, or encounter an obstacle that can’t be tackled. A winch can solve all these problems and more. Be sure to choose one that matches the power of your ATV, or you’ll risk draining your battery. Winches come in either wire or synthetic, so you should choose the one that’ll best suit your needs.
Emergency Kit
It’s important to be prepared for any potential emergencies that might occur while you’re riding. The contents will depend on how and where you ride your four wheeler, but some basic necessities are a first aid kit, a strong knife, duct tape, zip ties, a flashlight, firestarter, poncho, signal device and you guessed it, food and water. It’s also a good idea to include tools and spare parts for possible emergency repairs. After all, there’s no such thing as being too prepared.
LED Lights
Early morning rides can turn into all-day events, so it’s a smart idea to have your ATV equipped with LEDs in case you end up riding when it gets dark out. These lights are becoming much more common, so they’re pretty affordable. LED lights require much less energy and they also provide better lighting quality in general. What’s cool about LEDs is that they are totally customizable, so you can have them designed to not only meet your needs but to match your style, too!
GPS
It’s easy to take a few wrong turns when you’re having a blast tearing up the trails, so a GPS is always a worthwhile investment. When you’re so far off the beaten path, you don’t have the luxury of street signs or landmarks to guide the way. Utilizing your phone GPS may seem like a viable option, but you risk draining the battery quickly as well as the possibility of not having enough service to map your location. You’ll be thankful you installed a GPS device in your ATV when you find yourself in the middle of nowhere!
