New to all this.

Just purchased a home that is on fairly hilly 10 acre wooded property with a 200' gravel driveway.

There are many fairly deep ravines and ridges.

Would like something I can plow snow and also ride around the property in.

Not interested in speed.  Interested in slow, casual riding around the property.

Is a UTV good for both of these wants?

Is a UTV too top heavy for trail riding?

Will have to clear trails and collecting firewood would be great.

If so, what brand/model do you recommend.

Thank you for your recommendations.

From your description, I'd say a UTV is what you'd want.  Much more comfortable than an ATV for extended use like plowing.  Plus you could have a windshield and enclosure.  No worries about being top-heavy,  nothing above shoulder level but roll cage and a plastic roof.   Plenty of options and prices ranges out there, if you can find them in stock.

Sort of decided on a Kubota because of the hydrostatic transmission.

Problem that nobody has any.

Have a dealer that will call me when one gets in that someone has ordered so I can take a look.

Hope they remember.

I bet it will be a good machine. Probably on one of those container ships we don't hear anything about any more!!! Be sure to take us some pics when its sold.

      Want a new work UTV; who and what should I look for?
      By FTG-05
      I want to ditch my Kubota RTV-XG850 and its moronic twitchy throttle design flaw, get rid of the problematic engine and the 40 mph purposely throttled speed.
      So far, I'm looking at the Honda Pioneer 1000 and the Polaris Ranger 1000, both of which have 1000-1500 lb payload bed capacity.
      What other makes and models should I be looking at?
       
      Thanks for the help!

      Can’t figure out what part I’m missing
      By Grant
      I recently bought an axis 500 and it’s missing a box or something the plug is L shaped I’ve looked through the wiring diagrams and still can’t figure it out. The plug is located right near the battery housing

      Snow Blade for Coleman Outfitter 550?
      By Alien10
      I'm thinking of buying a snow blade for my Coleman Outfitter 550 (Hisun with Coleman stickers).
      Has anyone purchased a snow blade that can offer the make and model they bought and any comments, pros  cons etc.?
      Not 100% sure I'm going to buy, as the selection of blades for this model seems a bit thin on line. 
      Thoughts and comments welcomed.
      Thanks in advance.

      New guy with new (to me) machine

      As with any forum you join, there is a requirement for an obligatory introduction... and that seems fair. How else do you get that first post in there without jumping in with some stupid question right out of nowhere?

      Hi. I'm Space Ghost. Well, not really, but that was my call sign on my last deployment before an IED made me non-deployable, and I an now retired/disabled, and living on my wonderful VA disability. I did almost 28 years in total between the Army, Army Reserve, and National Guard. 1 deployment with the Reserve (Desert Storm) and 3 with the Guard (1 pre, and 2 post 9/11)

      Married (going on 30 years) one of each. (both out of the nest)
       
      Just picked up my first side by side a couple days ago. A 2020 Can-Am Defender HD10 DPS 6x6. 

       
      It's in pretty good shape, but as you can probably tell, it's sitting a bit high. Former owner put a lifting collar on the shocks. 

       
      The good = almost 17" of ground clearance. (30" tires) 
      The bad = incredibly steep driveline angles, and a pretty stiff ride. 
       
      They will be coming off. 
       
      Other than that... clean as a pin and appears very well maintained. 
       
      Looking forward to seeing what this forum can bring, and hoping I can bring something in return.
