Default Need buying advice!

I'm looking at buying an ATV very soon, but unfortunately I know very little. I'm going to need it for some moderate snowplowing and light recreational use. If anybody has any advice on which manufacturer and model to get for somebody who needs an easy to operate machine with good reliability, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

If your looking for a good four wheeler to buy you should look at a 2x4 250cc Recon or Recon ES.We have 2 of them and we haven't had any problems with either.The Electric Shift is very easy to use and reliable.They have 250cc engines that are great for trail riding and having fun.They are good at plowing snow,but for 6 inches or more you should get tire chains.If you get a lot of snow per year you might want to get a 4x4.Hope this helped.

Any newer Polaris 325,330 or 400 will be a good choice with automatic 4stroke engine and shft drive and will plow great if you get them with 4x4.
