Outline: Inn this paper I will discuss ATV 's and general knowledge and getting them wet. I also will discuss their origin and how they need care and how to keep them doing good for a long time.

You should always do a complete check of your ATV before riding . Second, ATV 's also provide power and speed. There are also amphibian ATV 's that float and go like a boat.
