The 420 Rancher is available in either electric shift or manual shift. I don't really see any problem pulling a disc with one, but I would step up to at least the Foreman or Rincon. The Rincon is indeed a beast. And the Foremans are available in power steering as well.

We got my wife a 06 350 4x4Rancher ES . So far there has been no problems with it. The only problem was it had a defective battery. Honda changed it during the warranty period.I got a 06 TRX680 FA and so far has been great.I asked a few questions about the auto shifting on a couple ATV forums.I have a few things to check.I will say the Honda line is the way to go. I tried the Polaris thing one time and it will be the last time.

The rincon offers a great ride and handling,but I would never recommend it as a work machine because of it's three speed automotive type transmission.The dual range hydrostatic transmission makes the rubicon a much better machine for towing or hauling heavy loads.
