Got a couple of small tractors, JD 430 and MH 81, but still thought an ATV would be nice to have around. Bought a good used 2WD Honda for less than $800, a 25 gallon rack sprayer, and a trailer from Harbor Freight on sale for about $100. The sprayer at times has been a pain, cheap plastic fittings have broke and the while spraying the really cheap wand just bent! Bought it thru the neignbor/tenant that also sells sprayer stuff and can't get him to give me a bill, so actual value is pretty good. Replaced the fittings and wand with upgrades from Farm & Fleet for about $20. If doing it again I would buy a better sprayer and not have the problems. Overall the whole package has been a great purchase. Honda's apparently will run forever and the whole family, particularily the better half, uses it to run around, most often to transport stuff. Have one building approx 1/4 mile away and occasionally use it as transportation. Could substitute a small tractor and/or truck for just about anything we do with it so can't justify a new $5000 machine, but with such a limited investment I certainly would do it again.
