Best Workhorse UTV?

Stick with the Kubota 900 RTV or larger for pulling hard. It basically has a tractor hydro transmission. Plus the braking action of the hydro trans would work extremely well on your hilly terrain. Trust me.

So you would use a gasoline powered tow behind Bushhog? Certainly a valid way to mow. A bit unconventional but will work. In Eastern KY a lot of folks use 4wheelers with tow behind gas powered rough cut mowers for mowing those steep grassy hills! 4wd UTV and ATV climb hills like goats and are fairly stable.

Thanks for the advice

I'd probably use a tow behind mower, as we'd re-seed once plowed with some type of native grass. The grass has to be kept very, very short with basically no weeds, which will mean pretty much constant upkeep the first few years. We'll hopefully be buying some hunting land in the next few years, as well, so the UTV will come in handy for food plots, etc.

WTC - thanks for all the info! I'll have to run it by my husband and see what he thinks. He's much more versed in machines than I.

newbury - thanks for linking the videos! We'll be re-seeding with something quick-growing once plowed. Our weeds here are insane, too, so I'm sure there will be ones popping up within a few days. Our soil is pretty rocky, too, so I'm not too worried unless we get a torrential downpour before the grass starts growing.
