Default What 4x4 to buy? Yamaha, Suzuki, Arctic cat, Kawasaki?

I have a 2003 Arctic cat 400 fully independent auto and want a atv with a lot more power but am not sure what to get as there are so many models out there. Since I own an arctic cat I figured I should post here? I was hoping to get other peoples opinions weighing in with there experience with owning there machines. I love the ground clearance of my arctic cat but I want a lot more power has to have fully independent suspension and something with a diff locking front end. I have ruled out can am"s and polaris and honda. I was locking at another arctic cat like a v2 or 650h1 or a kawasaki brute force 750, King quad 700, or grizzly 660. What is the most durable and best exploration atv. It will be mostly used for plowing snow, trail riding sometimes on very muddy and rocky terrain, or where there is no trail at all. And just regular all around use. I really want something with great power that will keep me entertained as well as handle and hold up to what I described above. If this is not posted in the right area I apologize.

Does the brute force have as much ground clearance as the arctic cats or at least close? Ground clearance really comes in handy where it is rocky or when making trails. As long as it's close then that is fine. Kawasaki dealer is much further away but seems like it's worth the trip. The brute really has that much more power then the others I mentioned?

brute 750 gives about 9.5" of ground clearance. Yes the power is much more than others.

How is the 4wd system on the brute? Anybody have any issues with it? A friend of mine said he heard they have problems with the 4wd not working correctly. (he has been doing some research online for me}
