^ I've been looking at the Defenders lately. I like the Seats and layout a little better then the Polaris..
Been kicking around the Idea of getting one for trapping season myself. Alot of properties I could have accessed this year with the wet weather in a UTV , where the truck would rut up.

Honda also. They seem to be the quietest out there. My brother has 1000cc Honda. I can barely hear it, compared to say my 450 four wheeler

I have had a CanAm Commander 800XT since 2012. Love it. The Polaris General looks nice but when it is time for another one, I will likely go CanAm again.

I just bought the 700 also...about 2 weeks ago. Ran a short 10 day trapline with it. I'm in love!

thx for the answers....having done very research thus far, I was looking at the honda 1000, but its a big decision, I want enclosed with heat option...I'm a buy once and get it right kind of guy...just want to see what all you educated folks have to say...sad thing is it wasn't very many years ago you could drive a new 4x4 Silverado off the lot for the price of these things

Thats a great choice every brand will have its lemons and brand loyalty. I see mostly Polaris and yamaha out here. I had such good luck the my old rhino i went back to yamaha after trying a Polaris that just didn't fit the job i needed it to do. Price was a big big factor for me but i was only 12 grand out the door for my 2018 viking ranch.

How do they get around in snow without tracks? I want one but if it didn't have tracks I wouldn't be able to use it in the winter. I have drove them with tracks and loved them.

Mine does better then a 4wheeler or a pickup. Haven't had the new one in real deap snow but my old rhino would go in 18 to 24 inches of freash snow with no issues. But the cab did kinda fill up where the snow came over the hood in dryer snow conditions

I would of thought they would be worthless in that much snow. I had a AVT and it wasn't good in snow unless you had chains. I'm looking for a track machine that can handle any snow conditions. Things here can get deep and crust then fall through will need something to stay on top as much as possible.
