Hey guys I appreciate your responses but its a trials atv, kinda of like a trials motorcycle, not an atv trail. On the trail note, here in colorado we have alot of wooded areas but we have little to no areas that atv riders can atempt some of these time trials events. I haven't been to the carolinas in a long time but if atv riders had an area that they could atempt some of these difficult and precise manuevers would be outstanding. Part of my presentation is going to be the integration of the everyday rider and the trials riders with perfect balance. I am going to do this by providing a machine that can perform on a similar level as the trials motorcycle, but remove the difficulty of maintaining absolute and complete balance. Obviously everyone wishes they had the balance and equalibrium of these trials riders but physically most people can't do it. Thats why a vehicle with some of these capabilities has a niche in the market place.

      So we are almost a month into winter and I've been so busy working on my house that up until today, I didn't realize that we just haven;t gotten any real snow yet to warrant putting the plow on my grizzly. So that got me thinking, what are the latest plows out there and what ATV plows are the best? I've got 2 snow plows for my grizzly, a quadboss pile driver atv plow set up and a snowsport ATV plow. They are both a bit dated now and I tend to stick with the snowsport due to ease of use and I just like it so much. So if you have a plow on your ATV, please let us know what it is and post a picture with your atv/plow would be awesome. Would also like to know what you like and dislike about it.
      This is back a while when I did a write up on these 2 plows.... in 2009 I got the snowsport and in 2012 I got the quadboss.

      I have a Sportsman 450 HO and almost killed my self when loading it on my truck with ramps.  It rolled off the top of the ramps and tailgate and nearly landed on me.  I now want to winch the ATV in to the truck.  My question is are the front side bed tiedowns in my 2011 RAM strong enough to winch to without distorting the hooks or sides of the bed?
