ATV

Once you go to the big bores (600ccs and up) you will never go back.

Had a Honda rancher that was the same way. Would pull any thing in 1st gear and even 2nd. I had a dog trailer that I would pull when we hunted, I would use it to pull hog traps around, and even planted some little food plotts. THEN I got the Brute Force 650 and that same dog trailer I could pull 60mph down the road. Every thing could be done two or three times faster... with the Honda there was no leaving 2nd gear. Even dragging harrows and stuff... no comparison. Like it wasn't even back there with the Brute Force.

Surprising your wife can push that bigger one faster the the smaller one.

She's been working out. Plus she hates that cow.

I'd still rather have a 450, 99% of the time it would be more than enough. My old 400 Kodiak did a better job of pulling wagons, low range in the Grizzly is still way too fast, not to mention the reverse.

I'm surprised you didn;t use YOUR horse!

MY horse!!!??? I've got about as much use for a horse as I would for a new Mercedes Benz. But the Mercedes would probably be cheaper in the long run!
 
Got two Yammyhaws...99 250 Bear Tracker...99 400 Big Bear. The bigger one is a much better ride but has always been hard to shift. Ain't never been on another brand.
 
NOT TO BEAT A DEAD HORSE BUT!!! Polaris Sportsmans are automatic and require only little maintenece, comfortable ride and plenty of HORSES to run down that crazy cow or SMOKE YOUR BUDDY ON THE YAMAHA!!!
 
If there is a better 4 wheeler for me than my 450 honda forman I will never know it until this one wears out. Hard working for 6yrs and still going strong. But I will say it's always rode like siting on a brick.But it was designed for hard work not joy riding.

I just bought a Yamaha 700 Special Edition; comes with a power stering, heated handgrip and thumb. In Texas, this option is not avalable I suppose.
 
06 Arctic Cat 500 TRV Great for work and play and I really like to play on it :lol:
Hope to be riding with a large group May 10 up close to Chattanooga.

Thats like saying my S-10 just doesn't pull my 30' gooseneck the same as my duramax dually. I have had a rancher and it was a great bike, but the best was the old Hondas with the metal gas tank. 300's. Good old bikes.
