The Rincon has a has a silly 3 speed auto tranny that has no low range that's why its only rated at mear 850lb towing capacity yet the much smaller 500 Foreman is rated at 1,100lbs.
Even Honda states. the Rincon is not meant for work, that's what the 500 Foreman and rubicon are for. Even the little 420 Rancher has a higher tow rating.
My 350 Grizzly is rated for 1,100lbs towing and it does not even have a low range option.
In snow you will want "true Awd" and only the 2014 Foreman will have that.

Whats a 700LTD?

700 LTD arctic cat.As it turns out I opted for the 550H arctic cat so you'll be hearing from me in the future as getting the information on here is conformation after looking in the book.

The 550 Arctic Cat probably has more horsepower than the Rincon. I like the big gas tank on the AC too.
