I recently bought my Pioneer about 50 miles from my home in New Mexico and planned on picking it up with my enclosed 14' motorcycle trailer. Also thought it might be wise to measure first since this isn't just an ATV. Opening in the back of the trailer is plenty wide enough, but the height was 6 foot (72") and the height of the Pioneer 78" so that was a no-go.
Plan B, take the flatbed as shown below....no problems. I don't think anyones going to load one of these in a pick-up bed, though I think it might just fit. 8 foot beds I figure puts the back tire on the tailgate. Mine has a diesel tank in back, so no go there either. Front tires are 5 foot wide on the outside, so they would have to climb over the wheel wells of the pick-up. To tight for me and would even consider it.
Taking the Pioneer coyote hunting or just riding, and hauling it on the goose-neck is a bit much . My other Dodge 4500 has 9 foot flatbed so maybe I can ramp it up on that.?.?. A small 12 foot open trailer would be ideal.
Does anyone know if you can use ATV ramps on these or is the machine too heavy. Mine are aluminum folding type. The weight is almost twice as much as a 4 wheeler, well mine anyways.
Here's a pic after getting loaded at dealer.
OH, have a 5th wheel toyhauler too, not sure if that will fit in the back. I will measure that today and get back to you. Garage is 10 foot long and plenty wide, but the door opening again, and there's overhead beds that might not give enough height.
Sorry for such a long post.
