IMO if your gona be using it for just a bit of work, i would save a few $'s and get the 420 rancher instead, its a bit smaller and a little more sportier. but ether way hondas are great for work, and will do nearly anything.

good luck

I really like my 500 Foreman as a trail machine. The 420 Rancher is a nice machine, but there is just something I like better about the Foreman.

I know its a 2005 review , but the 500 Foreman has not changed one bolt since it was introduced.

I'd have to say the 420 rancher is a better machine. Its cheaper price and FI. When I bought mine in 07, I tried the Foreman first than rode the rancher. The rancher was the better of the two. Its my work machine, and my wife rides it when we trail ride. I ride my new grizzly.
