I am with you on the Rubicon(AWESOME)machine.I would think that it might be a bit more than someone getting their first 4 wheeler might need but they sure are fun and practically unstoppible.Honda also has a 650 coming out this year and it should burry the 650 Kawasaki.

I have never really needed the 2 wheel option but it already turns sharper than some other brands that are 2 wheel drive.

The Rubicon is a revolutionary design and has had things done with it that no other machine will even come close to matching.


I would suggest a Recon or Rancher from Honda for a starter but if you have the money,go for the Rubicon or the new 650 coming out later this year.

I will say that a 4 wheeler has it's place in hunting but really needs to stay in the truck untill a deer is down and you want to retrieve it.It is also helpful in early scouting and hanging stands early in the year.They are also great for just playing around and having a good time.


You say that you have never owned 1 so let me give a little piece of advice.GET A RIDING COURSE,these can be very dangerous and can even kill someone if it ends up on top of you.Mine weighs a little over 600 pounds and most are around 500,don't let it get on top of you.

I also don't really know of any that you need to stay away from,most are good machines.
