1st choice, Polaris Sportsman 850 is a tank and will still pull the front wheel of the ground. Then the Sportsman 800. You'd need to ride the Sportsman 550 to see if it has enough power for you. IMO the Sportsman has a better ride and handle's better than the Grizzly. The Grizzly's suspension is a little soft, but is still a good atv. Then the Honda's, which are under powered, but very reliable as well. Those would be my picks. Try to test ride a few of them to judge for yourself. The dealer probably won't let you test ride the new one's, at least in my area they don't at the dealership, but will for the used ones. So you can get some idea of what you want. I'd buy new, stay away from used unless you really know the person who owned it. Get a winch, for the rare instance when you get stuck. If your not in a hurry to get one, watch for special deals where they offer a winch or accesories for free or cheap.
