The Honda is the best of all worlds for me we trail ride several times a year and use it for property maintenance and deer hunting. And occasionally pull a small trailer around the property.

Also I’m a big fan of the Honda because it has a real transmission. Not a fan of cvt for slugging around like I do and it’s nice as hell to put it in first and let the trans do the work on a rough downhill.

We used to have Polaris 4x4's, and even a 6 wheeler with the dump bed on back, all worked well around the farm, but plenty of maintenance long term with the Polaris, it seemed. We now have a Pioneer 1000 that we use frequently. Herding cattle, fixing fence, have a sprayer we put in back with fork lift to spray everywhere, Only problem we have incurred, is when I have sprayer loaded up ready to spray, and wife wants to use it to do "clean up" around the yard. :-) We have considerably more acres than OP, or I would have suggested the Pioneer for larger acres.
