I had good luck with Kawasaki mules. Not much for playing but great for hunting/working around home

Just skip all the Junk and spend a little more on a Honda, your wallet will thank you later and it won't have to be worked on during hunting season.
OG Polaris or Kawasaki Mule. Parts availability and cost or options of 3rd party parts for these units are far SUPERIOR than other stuff on the market and cheaper. I’m still running a 2004 ranger 500 4x4 and it will not break if I do my scheduled PM’s on it. Flip it, bury it, sink it, 20 years of hard use and no reason to even look at a newer model for me. DO NOT buy one of them Home Depot or tractor supply piles!
polaris ranger , if you are using it for hunting.
get the closed in cab.
i have a 2015 900 and the only change would be a cab.
i have had no problems so far.

We have a 92 mule at camp that just keeps on trucking,I have a 02 500 ranger that’s been fantastic.i also have a 48 v beastbuggy that I use in hunting season great for a-b hunting not worth a flip for trying to do work all over the property the next thing you know batteries dead.
I don’t think you can go wrong staying with name brands Polaris,Kawasaki,kobota,Honda.
Get what you need up front.my motto is pay once—cry once. Good luck

I’ve owned my 22 Yamaha Rmax2 1000 for a couple years now.
I wanted a sporty buggy that I could also depend on for working around my property. I am super happy with it, and have converted several of my Polaris-owning friends.
Pros:
Registered for street use in GA
Take-off clutch instead of using belt
Dry-Sump oil system
10yr belt warranty
108HP
Short wheelbase for tight trails
Full time locker in the rear
Selectable front locker
2,000lb towing
Dump bed
Fox coil overs with all the travel 14”F/17”R
It’s a Yamaha
Lots of aftermarket goodies available
Roomy comfortable passeneger area
Factory lighting is better than avg
They offer a base model so you don’t have to pay for the extras if you don’t want them “R-Spec”
I have seen them purchased used for under $13k
They offer a 4-seater
Cons:
Full time rear locker
Upright seating position can get uncomfortable on long rides
Not enough fender to keep out the mud. But they make mud busters for this model
Not sure if it would fit on a 5x10ft trailer, sorry! It is rather small compared to the other buggies I ride with. I regularly abuse this buggy pretty badly and so far it has taken it well. Still cleans up like a new one. Good luck in your search

Been reading and enjoying the feedback I'm getting. So thanks again.
Why the enclosed cab?
Why the enclosed cab?
I've got a Kubota 1120D and have been extremely pleased. It has never failed to do what I needed it to do. It's not fast and it's heavy but you'll be hard pressed to find anything that will out work it.
Toyota Tacoma, no trailer needed.
