i have a 500fa with a 60 in. moose plow, the winch lift is the only way i would go (had all 3-winch-manual-plow lift(junk)) If your planing on deep snow or sidewalks i would probably say a 50in. you'll be amazed wth how much snow you can actually move with a atv(and how fast). i would get a higher quality one instead of worring abut price (seen warnand swisher, lighter built) good luck
ps. good reason to go ride will other are running shovels
