Default Need a quad

I'm new to atv's and don't really know exactly what I'm looking at. I need an atv that can pull logs out of the woods (large logs like 30 ft). I also would like to do some yard work (mower, brush hog, etc). I'm planning on racing this quad on mx tracks also. I'm going to sell my boat so I can get this atv so it needs to float so I can still fish. Most of the fishing I do is trolling so there needs to be a place for rod holders. I'm also getting a job that requires me to travel so this atv will need to actually fly so I can save on air line tickets. My wife passed away recently so it will have to be able to pull the coffin to the cemetery which is in another state so it needs to get around 400 mpg so I don't have to stop for gas. It will also have to be able to wake the kids up, pack lunches, change diapers and get them ready for school when I'm out of town. I'm not much of a mechanic so if it could fix my truck and never break down that would be great....Any suggestions? Oh yeah, my wife was actually killed by my girlfriend who I'm petrified of so if it could "service" her without me there that would be great too.

I believe that Honda has one that will do all that and more.

On second thought, maybe not all that, but it will be reliable.

Here I'll post what I know "somebody" wants to......................I think the best bang for your buck would be the Honda Rancher. First I'm going to completely ignore the fact that it needs to pull logs and ask if you really need a 4X4. Second the Rancher can do anything ANY other quad can do so it would be a great MX quad I beat all my friends yamaha's, kawi's, zuk's, and any other atv with my Honda Rancher. Third since it is the GOD of all atv's it can walk on water and sprout wings and fly so that should take care of the fishing and travel. Fourth since it isn't an overweight pig I get 400-450 mpg depending if I'm pulling another brand of quad home or not (because I've pull every model of every brand of atv home with my Honda Rancher). Fifth mine has a great relationship with my children, has an alarm clock built in and makes a mean pb and j sandwich. Sixth whenever my truck breaks down all I have to do is park my Honda Rancher next to it and WHALA it's fixed. Finally since I'm such a tool and have nothing better to do than suggest a Honda Rancher for EVERYTHING it leaves no time for feeble things like taking care of "business" I'm going to suggest the Honda Rancher because my girlfriend prefers the Honda Rancher because you have to think "do you want a 700 lb atv rolling over on you?"

That should about cover it huh. LOL.
