But if your looking for most dependable longest lasting and least amount of maintenance then yes they are still the best.

They’re definitely in that top tier for reliability still but the gap isn’t what it was years ago where you couldn’t break one if you tried. Been around a couple foremans, they have broken half shafts, a drive shaft, and had bearings go out under moderate to heavy use which is exactly what breaks on any other fourwheeler that would have been used to do the same things. Have a couple grizzlies running the same property and they have had more electrical issues due to rodents going after the “natural” wire insulation than mechanical problems. One smokes and eats oil because it was ran with chocolate milk in the engine for over a year, but you don’t notice anything riding it. They all will last if you are prepared to keep up with the maintenance and realize wear parts break at some point.
