    Has anyone used their 1st gen to haul an ATV If so what kind of ATV was it?

    I am considering buying one but I want to make sure it will fit nicely into my truck, assuming it's not a kids size ATV.

    Pics would be awesome if you happen to have any.

    Thank you

    Get a trailer. Safer and easier to load and unload.

    Nice, I have a 6 foot bed so it should be long enough.
    Any idea what make and model that quad is? Trying to get some basic measurements as far as size of quad.
    I was worried about the front of the quad hitting the rear window with the tires on the wheel well

    I put a 2x6 board across the front resting on the fenders so bumper wouldn't hit window

    Yup, I had two KFX90 (both standing up) on my extra cab, along with an ice chest and misc. stuff, with the tailgate closed.

    Wow nice haha look like a lot more can fit in their than I thought.
    I was considering a Polaris sportsman, maybe 450 / 500 would fit.

    I just finished a 4.5 trip with my 02 Honda Rancher in the bed. I backed it in the bed and while it’s tight, it fits and no risk of it hitting the cab or glass.
