[QUOTE="TacomaJD, post: 421705, member: 1780"] No it’s def because Hondas will take a major beating. They always built their junk to be low maintenance and long lasting. I’ve been through a few Hondas over the years before I got into rock crawling. Had 2 different Honda Foreman Rubicons with lifts, big tires, snorkels, etc and could not count how many times I drowned both of them out in mud holes with nothing but the handle bars sticking out of the water, winch em out, mess with it a little to get it running again, and keep on wheeling! Both of those lived amphibious lives and only problem I had was breaking the rear driveshaft in one of them. But that was from big heavy tires and me mashin it’s motor. Those Rubicons also had the option to either Electric shift or turn it to automatic. And they were not belt driven like all the other auto wheelers, it was Hondamatic (hydraulic). Best utility atv’s they ever made in my opinion. I also always liked the straight rear axle for mud whomping because when you got hung up on ruts you could rock it and get it unstick usually….where as independent suspension quads have a larger flat belly and if you’re stuck, you’re just stuck…not much rocking one of those out. If you want a quad your boy can grow up on and you never have to work on it, buy a Honda. Hell save a lot of money and buy a used Honda that some grandpa used on the farm….they all gonna last!
