You made the right choice by not buying a Polaris. I bought a 2011 Ranger lightly used and couldn't imagine why someone even traded it in. Now I know why. After 3 years of battling problems, I hate it. Were going trail riding out west this spring and there's no way I'm taking it. We have a local Honda dealer so that's probably the way I'm going. Good video.

Good choice on machine. I have the four seater. The one thing that annoyed me about the Pioneer was the door rattles. You may experience it as well....unless Honda fixed that problem with the 2017. Polaris are nothing but problems. Yeah they have the looks and the power but they do not have the reliability

Nice job Aaron. I have the 700-4 and it's done everything I've asked of it and more. We had a hundred-plus year old oak fall and had to cut it up into chunks which I loaded onto a trailer with a Bobcat. I'd load that trailer so full I thought the axle might break and the Pioneer just walked off with it every time. My only wish is that they had put the unlocking rear diff on it like the 1000. It tears up the ground pretty good and so I don't use it around the yard and garden as much as I would otherwise.

The reliability of the Polaris would equal out the value or how much you spent on the Honda after a couple months that Polaris she’s gonna break and it’s gonna equal out the price or more money than you paid for that Honda I won hundred percent agree with you always go with Honda and can you make an update video on the Machine if you still have it

I disagree when you have to keep fixing things on the Polaris the money will equal out not to mention not riding while being repaired. I talked to several Polaris owners before buying and they highly advised to stay away from it.

It made a huge difference but i still get a rattle depending on RPM range and who or what i have loaded in it. Good choice on the machine. I use mine every day for play and work and i love it. But i think i will be upgrading to the 1000-5 soon.
