That's a lot of hours. However, if it was a lot of idling / putting around hours, it wouldn't be as bad.
I would say just be persistent and keep checking all the classified listings. I have sold 2 Rangers in the past, both of which were sold within only a couple days of listing. The good deals just don't stay on the market very long.
A lot of people tend to put a bunch of aftermarket additions and then inflate their sales price to try and get back some of the funds spent. The problem is, most add-ons don't add nearly the dollar for dollar value that some might think. I see a lot of machines like this that sit and stay on the market due to the high asking prices.
Just for reference, the last Ranger I sold was a 2009, 700XP, almost 100% stock. It had about 150 hours. I sold it about 1.5 years ago for $6,500. I originally asked $7K, but the guy that looked at it brought cash to the table. I probably could have held out for a bit more, but I was ready to sell and 65 of those Franklins made up my mind.

In response to 'a lot of hours'
In June we did a polaris razor tour in lower part of Baja on 2009 machines. Total trip was about 40km and for the last 25-30 I literally had the pedal through the floor 95% of the time. We hit jumps, turns and the wash boarding on the road was the worse Ive ever seen. These machines had hard miles
The machine I drove had 16,400 kilometers on it and the one a buddy and his wife drove had 14k. When we got back the lowest millage vehicle in the fleet was a 900 single seat that was a year old and had 8700 km. They ran their stuff through the same trails every day and sometimes twice a day
I worried about mileage and hours on my ride till I saw this. Ive got right at 1000 on a 2009. Had 3200 on my honda when I sold it
