I'm looking ahead for one of my characters, and have been trying to find some recreational vehicle suitable for him.

The problem is, I decided an ATV would be best...he's a survivalist, and this would be something used off-runs mostly. The problem is the insane cost of ATVs.

I could purchase any of the SUVs (except the MPUV) for cheaper than a small off-road 4-wheeler. This is ludicrous IMO.

The base-model ATV (chassis and Gasoline power plant) costs more than a Body 3 Caterpillar (chassis and Diesel). A small recreational vehicle costs more than construction equipment?!

I'm trying to come up with things to suggest/request of my GM to make ATVs more reasonably priced. Foremost is to adjust the DPV of the ATV chassis to 95 instead of 595 (I personally think this was one hell of a typo), which with a Gasoline engine makes the base cost just under 6k...modern ATVs cost around 3.5 to 8k $, so I think this is still reasonable.

Does anyone have other ideas to take into consideration?
