Default Which is the best machine for me?

hi, i am looking for a machine for my farm. I have a very small budget so i wont be spending really over $1000.
I have found two options and i was wondering which would be a better choice.

the first is a 1998 trailblazer. I know this isnt great for trail riding but would it work?
he is asking $1000 b/o. He says runs nice, 2wd, electric start, reverse, racks


the next is a 1995 polaris sportsman 400
this person says 2WD, freshly rebuilt mtr, 2000# winch, 48" snowplow, BN bearings in frt, 2 cylcle, new starter, batt, rear hubs, GC. he is asking $1350. So maybe i can get it for $1000? or $1100.


we will be mainly using our machine for our hunting camp. Just to get around. We will probably also be using it to go around the property. Is a 2-cycle ok in the winter or is not a good thing to have?

Not to sound rude but you only waited 2 hours on a weekday morning. People have jobs. Be patient. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

Now, to help you out a little, I would go with the Sportsman, between your two choices, only because the motor is rebuilt and you would get a winch and plow. If you could get that for $1000 bucks, that would be a pretty decent deal I think as long as the rest of the quad is in decent shape. That's my opinion which may vary from others. I have a 2-stroke 2001 Xplorer and it runs fine in the winter. I use it to plow my driveway and it runs no different in the winter then it does in the summer.

I hope that helps you a little. Welcome to the forums. The people here are very helpful.
