It was a quick google fu, looks like an artists impression. It seems like one of those things where you look at it and think if you used it somebody would pull your man card. But secretly, you really would like to get one.
Not sure about the heater or defroster, I figured your first question would be regarding a beverage holder.
I seem to suffer those money leaks too!

A beverage holder just would not work!
And look at how clear it leaves the driveway! My Honda doesn't do that!

True, the vibration would just spill that vital amber liquid!

Avoid the automatic trans models, they have a snowmobile clutch & drive belt, I have plows for a 350 & 400 Yamaha & both will do the job, (both 4x4)

Rubicon and foreman are built to work. Manual or auto ?

As much better as the 4X4 is then 2X4, the real diff lock is better in 4X4 then the open or limited slip designs.
I cannot count the times I've been stopped in 4X4 , backed up, selected diff lock and just continued on like magic. This is especially true with my Rhino My Honda engages the rear diff lock when 4X4 is selected, only the front diff lock is selectable separately.

I run a 2011 polaris 4x4, 550, 60" plow, metal blade.
Got it off face book for 3k, 1100 miles, perfect shape.
I've plowed 2' freash snow with it with ease, all concrete, asphalt driveways.
Wet 6" snow as well. Run it in 4x4 always when plowing.
A 500 atv at least or bigger.
Polaris, Honda, CF moto, Yamaha
Heated grips, heated thumb pad are your friend.
A windshield is nice in breezy weather plowing.
Did I make you cry......boooo hooo, life goes on.

Dang, I posted on this thread 12 years ago. Since then I've acquired a Polaris SXS and put a plow on it. If you have a lot of snow, a SXS is much better than an ATV. Mine doesn't have an enclosed cab but it does have a windshield and roof which is infinitely better than nothing. The winch has a set of buttons on the gear shift. You can wear heavy gloves on the steering wheel and to use the winch buttons. Mine is a 50" with a 60" plow so I can get a sharp angle with it if needed. The last 5 years, our snowfall has been dropping considerably. This last winter I didn't even put the plow on it. We never had more than 3" on the ground all winter.

I gave my Honda snowblower to my daughter and plow snow with my B2650.
No longer seeking wheeler advice for plowing!
