Can ya guys help me out... I'm having trouble deciding if I should go for a new 2001 Mag500 for $5500 or a new 2001 Sp500 H.O. for $5900. Should I get the Mag and put the extra $400 towards mud tires, winch and/or plow? Or is it really worth the $400 more for a Sportsman?

Thanks guys.

Peace.

If you want a nice smooth ride get the HO But I would get the Mag and put the mods on it!

If you are going to use the machine strictly for plowing and utility functions then go with the Magnum. If you trail ride (which everyone does) then the extra $ for the Sportsman is well worth it. I rode in rocky terrain in some mountains and the ride quality of the Sportsman was very nice. The Sportsman is the smoothest riding ATV I have ever ridden. The Sportsman also has the HO motor which is noticably MORE POWERFUL.

Verdict: Buy the Sportsman.
