Old Daniel and Davey would have given their coonskin caps to rest their sorry asses on a seat in Honda's new mountain-taming beast – aptly named the Pioneer – and have a heapin' helpin' of the new side-by-side ATV which is set to transport NZ farmers and outdoor enthusiasts to a new level of capability, safety and efficiency.
The Pioneer from Honda was, appropriately, launched this month on the farm of a NZ pioneering family, in the stunning countryside of the Clevedon district.
Four generations of genuine Kiwi pioneers have farmed these hills and valleys and we were privileged to be able to enjoy them aboard the finest new four wheel drive vehicles on the market.
