I use an Arctic Cat 500i on my farm. Drag trees, haul tools to where they're needed, haul trailers full of firewood to the house, and haul butt over some pretty rough ground. Farm is mostly steep hills and hardwood trees, lotsa limestone rocks, so the IRS and smooth ride are definitely appreciated. Cat is a big heavy machine, built like a tank, so it pulls very well. One year of use, and the only service the Cat has seen is oil changes.

Also, you can get the Cat with a manual transmission, nice to have if you're pulling heavy loads.

What about an Eiger, they have a great price and are amazing machines. I use mine for all kinds of farm work and it has'nt let me down yet.

 

I myself would probably go with the vinsion or honda they are both hard working machines.

A Eiger can get any job done just as good as a Honda Rancher or Foreman. its a very hard working machine and if you owned one you would be amazed. i was very amazed when i first got mine.
