Using a Can am for a workhorse

Hello all
Sure you have had this debate before but trying to pick the best ATV for my use. Been looking at the Can Am 650 or 800 ,2010 to 2014 as I want power steering. I am not looking for speed. It will be used in the bush towing wood logs or a wagon load with wood, and yes riding around too. I know the Can am 650 would have lots of power but as a work horse not sure been reading that the Can am is not the best unit for this type of work. Hearing about broken axles and the belt slipping and higher regular maintenance cost. Maybe should look at a different Atv name but heart set on the can am.
thanks for your input
