What I found out is its a very good atv but not really suited for a place like Louisiana with all the water, swamps mud etc. because its belt driven

buy anything except a Polaris. they may make a decent side by side but their atv reputation is horrible.

I just wanted to let you know I took your advice. I bought a new 2017 Honda Rancher 420 4x4. I got it for $4,800 before tax & they gave me a free winch.

You made a good buy, I did a lot of research last yr before getting my foreman and I couldn't be happier. Stuck some mudlite 2s on it and its been awesome.

I was thinking hard of getting the Kodiak 700 bc I wanted the extra power but didn't want an auto trans and the belt worried me because it was going to damn near always be in water and severe mud. To be fair though if the Yamahas had manual transmissions thats what I would have gone with.

my 2016 sportsman 450 is by far the worst vehicle I've ever purchased... I'm considering crushing it into a cube and dropping it at the dealer's door.
