Soon we will be picking up an 05 700 hopefully. It is a non efi. It has a warn 2500 pound winch on it. He is a asking 3k. My question is, what about plows. I am curious what kind of snow this thing can handle? What is a good brand of plows. I want one that can maybe push off some dirt too?
Thanks.

 

I always had good luck with the polaris glacierI set-up on my sportsmans. Think the glacierII's aren't heavy duty enough for me. I switched to and eagle mfg v-plow on my RZR and love it. Lot of other good brands out there like moose but pushing dirt will shorten the life of the wear blade. It will push plenty of snow. You will run out of traction long before power.

 

has plenty of power to handle any plow. theres also the moose plow. do a search on here and you'll see all kinds of post for plows.

 

Moose seems the best, but it is expensive. Do you think the atv is a good deal?

 

If it doesn't have a ton of miles and has been properly maintained it should be a good deal.

 

I'll report when I get time to ride it.

I am thinking that looks like a good plow system.

 

This may also be important, the driveway is 1/4 mile.

 

For a long driveway, you might want to consider something like the Moose "County" plow.

What is the benefit?

 

The tapered blade lets you roll the snow off to the side better when it's angled. Kind of like the plows they use on the roads. I've never personally used one but I've read a few places that they work great.
