What are you guys running for side x sides? Looking hard at the Honda Pioneer 1000-5 just for the way the seats are configured. I can have rear seats if we want to take the kids and go for a ride, yet the rear seats fold down and I can still have a functioning dump bed for utility work. We have been a Yamaha family but dont like the way the rear seats are in the Wolverine. Even when the seats are folded up you still dont have a full bed.

Looked hard at the JD Gator but could not get past the 3 cyl China "Chery" engine they use.

my ol hunting buddy passed away in march and he left me a polaris ranger,,,

i already had a polaris 4 wheeler ,,,so i gots two now,,,a wheeler and a sidexside ,,,i kinda like the sidexside

but it was a gift from a dear friend,,,

i do like the seat option on the honda,,,,

polaris has been in the sxs game for a lot of years,,,,not sure about honda and the sxs,,,

i doubt you could go wrong with either,,,both good names,,,prolly just options and what you like about it

Kind of out of my price range too but the used ones around here are not ones you want to buy....usually rode pretty hard and put away wet so to speak........

I am looking at it as an investment. If you buy a name brand machine, take care of it and service it like you should, it should last you many many years

Also Honda is the only one that doesnt use a belt. They actually use a 6 speed automatic transmission that you can shift manually with paddles on the steering wheel or it can go to full auto mode and its just like the wifes car.......
