Default So many choices.

I've been looking at large utility atv's for the past two months, I've read the spec sheets and looked at them all. And I am about the same place as I was when I started. I'm looking at, at least a 700 to 800 automatic 4wd. I know there is Kawasaki, Suzuki, Honda, Yamaha, Polaris and Arctic Cat. That can fit my bill. For political reasons I can't even consider Can-Am/Bombardier-sorry. I really want an honest opinion on what is best. I have all ready talked to dealers and I don't need the salesmenship or the pressure of buying this brand or that brand.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You.

Polaris Sportsman have been around forever and are very tough and reliable machines! Can-Am have most of the state of the art improvements, viscos lock front diff.,rear suspension design, more powerful engine, radial tires, etc.....!

Just bought a sportsman 500 a week ago for the mom (to do stuff around the house) took out to the trails last weekend...the thing is sick, nothing it cant take on, I'd imagine the 700 would be even more of a beast.

When we were lookin for utility quads it came down to the sportman 500 and the grizzly 350, didnt really like the grizzly, the sportsman just came with so much more (second seat, etc....) so...Polaris all the way.
