My atv weighs 1000 lbs. Its been stuck 3 times, and managed to winch itself out each time. Haven’t met anyone that could deadlift 1000+lbs out of muskeg. A side by side wouldn’t be any different.

I have a newer kubota diesel 4x4 utv
And an older honda 4trax
My honda has 2 dedicated trips annually. One up north for moose And grizz, and one in March for yotes and predators.
The reason outs dedicated is because it fit a in my shprtbox f350 without a trailer. That to me is huge, as I'm already towing a trailer or am not wanting to into scrappy winter conditions. It's so easy to trail ride as well, it's only an air cooler 300 4wd so it's very nimble.
Now my kubota I can pack a load of gear, a buddy and lunch and go for a day. My only downside is it's heavy as sin, and only fits on my car trailer.
It's not fast but marginally nimble. Great for long loop or overnight trips. Great for checking trail cams on a huge loop or for towing a boat into remote lakes. I just need a boat now.
Figured out what you want, where and low long your want to go and most of all how you will get the machine there.
These dictate which machine
Either way, utvs and atvs are great conversation pieces.
Mine sits in the middle of my garage, we drink beer and fire it up to charge the battery and talk about all the fun we will have next season.
