Ranger 900. Power steering, front AND rear wind shields, winch and get after it! This is what I have also. Bought from Shoals and nobody was close to them.

Has anyone heard anything about the one Mahindra tractor co. is making now? I had thought about looking at one, I know the tractors are good just have not heard anything on their UTV's They also offer zero percent financing for 36 months.

My 2nd choice would be can am. Their newest utv looks just like a ranger

Guys I appreciate the feedback. Its been very helpful. Question for the guys with the Ranger 570. Does the 570 feel like it has enough power? I looked at a 900 yesterday. Im used to a 700 cc ATV so a 570 seems a little small but how has it performed in the woods? I have a 900 but my grandpa has a 570 which I have used a lot. No lack in power in my opinion. It's actually a little easier to get through the woods probably. It just has a smaller bed and is mainly for 2 guys however you can squeeze 3 in there. I went 900 mainly because it seats 3 comfortably. The 570 doesn't lack any power in my opinion.

My 570 has tons of power. We have hauled six people in it all over the new cutover at our club. Up and down hills with plenty of power to spare.

I echo what others have said.
If you are gonna drop the coin on one of these, it just makes sense to get a windshield, roof and rear glass.
Also, if you look at any poly windshield, you'll realize you better buy glass. When I bought mine the glass front was around 600, the poly was 300. That was a no brainer. I went poly in the back....don't really need to see out the back as well as the front, its more a barrier for dust circling over the bed not getting thrown in the cab.

I have a 900 XP EPS single cab but have seen the 570's at work and seem as capable, just smaller footprint. I use mine most for running through flooded fields duck hunting and we beat the snot out of them. They never miss a beat.
I was told, but never researched, that the 570 had more HP than the old (2012ish) 800.

I'm pleased so far with my Ranger 900 XP EPS. Wish I had bought a folding/tilt windshield rather than the solid hardcoat poly windshield. I went with oversized tires and learned real quick that fender flares are a must unless you like a cab filled with mud.

I had thought about looking at one, I know the tractors are good just have not heard anything on their UTV's I looked at them, but comparing apples to apples, it looks like you will spend a couple thousand over the same UTV in a Honda/Polaris/Yamaha. The new Honda's are the bomb....and quiet...
