I'm a Yamaha guy and 1000% my search for a SxS for hunting/light play would be the Rmax. Was planning on getting one next month but some plans have changed - moving that to next year. I have a wedding to pay for lol.
That said - it's a lot that Yamaha will go a 10 YEAR warranty on their belts.
Neither one of those would be the best hunting machine.
Honda Pioneer is the only option IMO. Any only with the 1000 engine.
Get the bed extension and winch.
I don’t like using the Service Dept.

I've got a teryx, takes me anywhere I wanna go. Have friends that have can am, polaris, honda and sport machines. I really like my teryx but if price no issue, polaris ranger 1000 enclosed. All comes down to what features you like.

They push em hard cuz that's how they enjoy them. No one forces you to do 70.
More than capable hunting machines with cargo, towing and ground clearance.
If a person can do this with a 250cc quad, you can hunt out of Sport/Utility SxS.
I’ve got a 2022 Ranger 1000 EPS and added half doors. Wife got me a tool box for the bed and that’s where the rifle rides in a soft case to the stands. It has been good so far but I don’t use it hard. During the off season we use it to ride around the neighborhood and down to the lake or pool. It has been a good purchase for us.
