Canam or Polaris?

Hey guys, I know we are a Polaris only site but time has come for me to consider buying my own ATV. I have been using my dad’s 550 XP as my own for quite a few years now but it’s time I think.
I’m buying used because I can’t afford new and have found a couple that I think are decent. I haven’t looked at either of them yet because I live about 4 hrs away but I’m here for some advice.
I’m assuming some of you ride in groups with others or at least know people that have these atvs. Tell me everything you know and have heard!

My options right now are:
-2009 Polaris sportsman xp 850 LE PS Tequila Gold, plow and everything $5,000 OBO Canadian dollars. 2,100 kms.

Now I know this is a polaris site but I am not just a polaris guy anymore, really dig the canam atvs as well.

-2008 Can-am Renegade X 800R black
$5000 Can 2,300 kms.

Has anyone heard anything about the renegade? Ridden one?
I know one is utility and one is more sport but I could go either way.
Any tips or knowledge about either would be awesome.
I want power and something that can hit some mud once and a while.
Thanks guys
Will get a couple pics up soon.
