Default ATV purchase advice

Hello all,

I was hoping some of you might be able to provide some advice relative to purchasing a new (or used) ATV. We just moved to Colorado, and my primary reasons for wanting to buy an ATV are:

1. Plowing snow on our 300 foot driveway
2. Have fun in and around our area (don't see myself taking extended 4x4 adventures) - there are trees, hills and of course mountains nearby

I called a Polaris dealer and he recommended getting at least a 400cc model. Can any of you provide some impartial advice about what to do? I am a little leery about forking over $6k+, and was hoping there was something that would get the job done for under $3k.
