Up until yesterday I've only putted around the power line right of ways with the kiddos. I finally was able to hit a real trail and see what this thing could do. I was not disappointed at all. It handled everything i through at it other than 2+ foot snow drifts, but that was a clearance issue. We had to go off trail for the impassable snow sections and that is when the machine really shined. I covered the uneven terrain with no problems. The high alpine tundra around here is covered with small boulders and rocks, which we crawled right over with ease. Only had to engage 4wd once because I attempted some deep snow, after a little maneuvering i was able to creep through it. All in all i am thoroughly satisfied I bought Honda over Polaris. I cant wait to get out again next weekend for some more fun now that summer is finally here.

WELCOME! I have a white one as well. Ever wonder about losing it in a snow bank? HA! I have wondered how they would do across the Tundra, probably not I good idea.
