I would like to know your opinions on what the best four wheeler for plowing snow is. I live in N. E . Ohio, in the snow belt, we get alot of snow. My neighbor came by with a Polaris 325 and plowed my driveway, probably about 22" of snow, and he did pretty good. I was thinking of getting a Polaris Sportsman 500HO or a Yamaha Grizzley450(Kodiak450). I don't ride many trails, but I want to be able to. Which do you think is best?

Those are smaller utility quads but will prob get the job done. The sportsman's are generally the heaviest quads, so would probably plow the best as they have the most traction. The other brands are much more sportier at the throttle though.

We had a sportsman 700, and it did do a lot of work, but traded it for a 700 grizzly which can just haul ***!

We plow our hilly, rocky driveway with a 2001 wolverine 350 4x4 and it did so much better than we thought it would.

I started using a Sportsman 500 4x4 for my landscaping business. Works pretty well.
