Salient Characteristics for UFR #47 UTV for Field Ops:

- 1 each Polaris Xpedition XP 5 Ultimate utility vehicle

- Requires a front wind shield and roof

- Hard half doors (half doors only due to frequent use of radios)

- Front Winch capable of 4,500 pounds

- Engine Braking (to prevent overheating of brakes when going downhill)

- GPS system (navigation on handheld devices is not safe while driving)

- 1,100Lb payload (I calculated 200 pounds per passenger and 100 pounds of gear)

- 2,000Lb rated hitch

- Seating for 5 persons

- 12-gallon fuel tank (ensures enough fuel to last entire operation)

- Synthetic winch cord (metal cable is dangerous if it breaks)

- 30” tires (for increased traction in sand and mud)

- 4-wheel drive capable

- Color Green or Camo (to blend in with field environment)

- Ability to secure cargo in bed
