Hey, jburglund
I'm only about 100 miles southwest of you and without a doubt you will need a 4X4. You may be buying your cat to just plow the driveway but you will find that you will use it for so much more. I use mine for farming mostly and I need the four wheel drive and all 500cc's for towing and hauling equipment. I would at least get a 300 4X4. I have had my '01 500 MAN for over a year now and my only complaint is the gas gauge and gas mileage. But you trade gas mileage for tourque. I suggest getting a winch, it has got me out of more jams than I can count. Be Warned: Riding is addictive!
2001 500 MAN, 2000 lb Warn Winch, Rear Drop Rack (recently added for farming)

Well, I think I will probably be getting a 300 4x4 next spring - if the dealer has any left by then. If not, I guess I'll have to wait for the 2003 models. BTW, the local dealer is asking $4600 for the 3004x4, plus $100 for the 2500# winch installed. How does that sound to you guys? Thanks for all your help.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
