Ya. teh pickup would be the BEST bet but then i'd have to leave it sitting around all summer. I figured with an ATV, I get more an all around vehicle... I can use it to plow snow in the winter, pull the kids around on a sled, then in the spring/ summer I can play with it, use it in the yard, hunting in the fall, etc. It would be used much more than the pickup. But if I came across a pickup that was good running and had a plow, I might not be able to pass it up!

I think i will ultimately go with a sportsman 500. It's about 1/2 the price of a RZR and has a shorter wheelbase by like 6" than the RZR. Plus, I could literally almost buy 2 sportsmans for the price of 1 RZR with the necessary options to keep from destroying it. Heck, I can get a sportsman 6x6 for about 3 grand less than the RZR because the RZR is so hot right now that there are NO incentives to buy one. The dealers can't keep one in teh showroom for a full day!

My Grandpa and uncle both have Yamaha Bruin 350's that they use to plow snow. They love em! If worst comes to worst, the expedition has AWD and traction control and does awesome in the snow! I'll just bog my way out! haha Then have someone plow it with a truck.
