Good traction, good hauling capacity
Bought this for property management. Towing a brush mower, hauling a weed sprayer, carrying tools, hauling dirt and wood and what ever else. It is not geared low enough, pulls the mower too fast for it to do a good job. Hauls stuff really well though. Takes a lot to turn it around though. It is big, and there is power to all four wheels all the time. The machine, regardless of what Polaris says is not geared towards work. It is a four wheeler with an extra axel bolted on and a bed thrown on. It can haul a lot, but needs refinement to be a work horse. I don't regret my purchase, but if there had been a 6x6 with a manual transmission I would have bought it instead.

Very useful, rugged machine, great in bush country
This 6x6 is incredibly useful, built very tough, yet handles with ease, and performs a variety of tasks in all seasons. Well designed drive train. So much better than a normal 4 wheel ATV.

So far so good...
Pro's - the EFI and power steering are awesome... Starts no problem every time so far including in temperature of -25 Celsius.
I have had the bike upto 52 miles/hr head on into a strong wind. That's more than fast enough for a hardcore utility bike. I have loaded the box (with the Yukon Adventure Rack) as high as I could with fire wood and it rides no problem but negatively impacts the already poor steering radius. Most importantly the bike has tonnes of pulling power for work and out of all bikes the factory tires on this on are probably the best although I will be upgrading to a wider front tire when I put ITP Mud Lite XTR's on it.
The negatives: the gear shifter is by far the worst part of that and all Polaris products with the same shifter. It's very difficult to accurately and easily/effortlessly shift to exact gear position you want. Try to put the bike in neutral for example.... guaranteed ANYONE is going to go back and forth between reverse and low or high range at least two or three times before they can get it to neutral and it's difficult to get the shifter to shift in any direction most of the time. I absolutely hate the gear shifter..... Yamaha, Kawasaki and Canam, Suzuki all have far superior shifters. The turning radius is not good at all....but that's to be expected with the extra set of wheels in the back and knew that before buying the bike... That's ok. I wish the bike had a differential lock on AWD. The lock and rode gun boot mount sucks as the gumboot is not firmly seated and wobbles all over regardless of adjustment to firm it up. Finally the battery location is idiotic -i get it that it was to lower center of gravity for the bike....but it's just plain stupid - should be under seat like most other bikes...easy access etc.

Stable and comfortable to ride
I have 3 Polaris ATVs and a Yamaha side by side. This 6 wheeler is my favorite, not only because it carries everything easily but because it is so stable on the steep hills that I am not worried about flipping it over. It has a very nice ride over the rocks and stumps. It is so handy while also being fun. It does everything I need to do.

Perfect Farm Tool!
Purchasing my Polaris 6x6 was a total game changer for maintaining my small hobby farm. I use it daily for everything from hauling feed sacks and and distributing hay to spreading manure and picking up fallen branches on the same trip. The tractor hardly gets pulled out anymore.

Amazing machine
This is way more capable for plowing snow than a regular 4 wheeler. Having the extra axle and weight pushes the snow easier and more of it. Love having the bed space as well and looking forward to using this next hunting season. Didn’t take long to get used to the extra length.

Not my favorite
Purchased right before moose season. First use the shifter linkage came off, then the radiator plugged with mud, had to call out and get a battery powered pressure washer to keep it clean. Aks dealer if there was a fix his comment was if he could figure that out he could retire. Machine runs good, lots of power, comfortable to ride, good cargo capacity.

6x6 workhorse
I have only had my Sportsman 570 6x6 for a couple of months. Haven’t had the first service yet, but so far so good. I use it for farm work and hunting. Great piece of equipment.
