I bought a used 99 arctic cat 400 4x4, had 500 miles, now about 1800. It's real handy for rock picking, spot spraying and pulling a little brush hog. I cleaned up a bunch of overhanging trees along the edges of fields and drug the pieces off with it. You'd be surprised how much you can pull in low range.
Like the other guys mentioned I wish it had selectable 4wd, being fulltime it steers a little heavy.
Mine is liquid cooled with an electric fan which is probably a good idea for farm use, low speed, heavy loads and idling.
I mounted a winch for a snowplow, expanded metal racks front and rear for chainsaw, tools etc. It's not fast by any means, 40mph is near redline. Suzuki builds the engines for Arctic Cat, no complaints, though my 2whlr's a Honda. For me the 400 is just the right size, enough power to drag stuff around, but not enough to get me in trouble. Good Luck, DK
