Honda’s foot-shift, five-speed Recon 250 is much like the Ozark, and it’s only $3949. Suzuki also builds its sport utility quads in Georgia, which costs a little more, but the machine’s build quality is proof that American manufacturing can match the world’s best. Suzuki ATVs are very well-engineered and-finished, and their quality lets owners hand them down from generation to generation. Even though the Ozark is almost as simple as the basic quads that created the ATV boom in the 1980s, it’s very refined and modern.Īt $4599, Ozark 250 isn’t cheap, but isn’t cheaply made, either. Sadly, the Z250 isn’t available for 2015, but we hope it returns in 2016. The machine’s platform performs so well, Suzuki based the Z250 sport quad on it. The Ozark has sport quadlike dual-A-arm front suspension and swingarm rear suspension, so it has a sporty, nimble feel and surefooted handling. It has racks and a trailer hitch so you can carry and tow things, but its air-cooled, 250cc engine is powerful and responsive, and the foot-shift, fivespeed, automatic clutch transmission gives the rider precise control over the performance, so the Suzuki is fun to ride. The Ozark is a 2WD sport utility machine. We got the latest version of the Suzuki 250 to find out. Now that 400cc quads are considered small and ATV advertising is aimed at selling machines with more power and features than family cars used to have, a 250 like the Suzuki Ozark might seem like less machine than you need to get things done or have the kind of fun you want. As icing on the cake, they make lots of jobs fun and are a blast to ride when the work is done. The world warmed up to four-wheelers because they were easy to afford, easy to handle and made quick work of countless jobs.

ATVs are so much a part of daily life, most people can hardly imagine life without them, and more folks are up and running and working with their quads every day than you’d ever think.
