Cool Need help choosing a new 4 wheeler....

So my brother and his wife have a 2010 Polaris Trailboss and a Raptor 660. I have an old Trailboss that just doesnt keep up in the woods as well as open fields where we ride and have decided to buy a new wheeler. But the problem is i need help choosing a make and model. Im looking to buy used, anything that has the potential to be priced below $4,000 for a model year 2000 and later. I was looking at the Polaris Outlaw, found a 2006 for $3,000 and another for $3,100. Those were just an example of what i like. Im basically looking for something fast but also reliable when it comes to the conditions of the woods. Any manufacturer and model, any suggestions? Im all ears

If you can get a Honda 700xx for that price it's a good deal. IRS rear like the Outlaw, but with a fuel injected engine. The Outlaw 500 is pretty reliable but the KTM engine version 525 is much more powerful. Don't know if you could get the kind of deal you saw on the KTM engine model though. The Outlaw 500 is more stiffly sprung than the 700xx from what little I've seen.
