Im looking to purchase a four wheeler. It will be used to get me to my duck blind, which would involve driving now very well kept levee (rice field levees, not like large river levee) roads. I will also use it to deer hunt in a couple reserves here in louisiana. After speaking to a lot of different people, they seem to be split on whether or not I should get a 4x4 or a 4x2. I feel like a 2wd will be fine, and so do the guys I duck and deer hunt with. However a lot of others seem to think getting 2wd four wheeler is useless. Whats is the great OD board's opinions on 4x4 vs 4x2? Please enlighten me.

Everyone's going to say 4x4, and I agree. My 4wd drive system was broken, speedo frocked up, and that's my pants and shoes on the back. Getting off to push is a bitch.

4x4, you'll regret not getting it when you will needed it, because eventually you will need it. Also, consider resale value, 2x4 ATVs are usually tougher to sell if you ever get rid of it.

4x4. Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

4x4 and don't look back. Not much to wench too in a rice field if you get stuck. Plus, resale will be much better with 4x4.

What do the guys you hunt with own? Personally I wouldn't get a 2wd unless I was looking in the price range of models that don't offer 4wd.

I would get a 4x4 but in saying that my favorite atv of all time was a 350 honda 4x2.
