Polaris vs can am

[Gobble4me757]

I've gone back and forth…can am defender vs Polaris general /ranger. All I have read was that the can am was superior, but is it worth being 5-7k more?

I just will be using to ride around the house with my son as well as take to the camp to use to hunt with as well as for work around the camp.

Would it be worth getting a used can am around the price of a new Polaris etc?

I don't care about power as I'm really not gonna be using it for power/towing etc.

I'm in Florence, AL now do will be by a Polaris dealer, but I've heard their repairs are high etc I will drive by a can am dealership on the way to camp so that's a wash.

Which one is quieter? I know can ams are reliable but do Polaris hold up? Etc Open to any and all points. Thanks!

I wouldn't buy either based on the issues I've seen with both.

I will only consider Yamaha, Kawasaki, or Honda

Between those for the purposes mentioned I'd buy a Polaris Ranger. That said Honda Pioneer 1000 is what I'd get if buying today.

All I can say is send me some Lasagna from Ricatoni's. Man they have the best Italian food in the South. I'm from up north and know a thing or two about good Italian food. We drive all the way from Chattanooga just for their food.
