atv/utv working machines picture thread

Do you ever see yourself wanting a SxS rather then the 6x6 especially when it comes to hauling?

Yes and no. The operator visibility is better on a atv while the box is modestly larger on a utv. Which is more important to you? I have operated both.

I have also had both a SxS and ATV. For me I would choose SxS all day every day. But I've never had to deal with snow.

Personally, I have always been an ATV guy because a tractor used to always be available to me. Even my sub compact with a few trailers I have work great. An ATV fits in the bed of my truck. The pure size of a SxS has always been a little limiting to me but I have started to take interest in the Honda 500 or 520 SxS. I like that its smaller but has 2 seats.

I'm curious what you folks who live in snowy places do for UTV tires. I've got Carnivores on mine and they're awful in snow. I've done winter group rides in WV and nobody seemed to do very well climbing snow covered hills.

I cannot speak on UTVs but have to assume tread pattern on an ATV would still work well on a SxS. I, and many other I have rode with in the past, have always been big fans of Maxxis Bighorns (or the knock off sunf) pattern. They aren't the best in mud but were great in snow, in my experience.
