I have mine for five yrs with no issues and I beat the shite out of it. Even stayed buried up for 3 days up over the doors once. Never buy my used shite! Except my guns, they are well taken care of.

I've had 2. They're great machines. First one I had got stolen. I replaced it with another til my lil cousin managed to blow the motor up. The place that worked on it never could get it right and it kept burning clutch kits up after the rebuild. Not the Rhinos or Yamaha's fault. I went with the Polaris Ranger 800 this time. Simply for more room seating wise and a bigger bed. The Rhino is a lot sportier, but the Ranger is stronger and has a lot more room. Ya can't go wrong with either IMO

I have a two seat Mule. Really like it...very dependable. Not fast, but that's fine.

Great machines. My family has owned a Yamaha/Kawasaki dealership for over twenty years, so I have had plenty of experience with them.

I like the Rangers too, just a little above my price range

Maybe one of those high tech Rednecks like Ole Geauxt can make us one.

If not, I challenge someone to do it.

They have a midsized Ranger now. It still has the 800cc motor, just a little smaller machine. I don't know what the Rhino's are going for, but I know you can get a mid size Ranger for about 10,500.

Ah, yeah that should put you in the good used Rhino range. Rangers for less that 5K will likely be ragged to hell and back.

You have 450 or 660/700? Heard the 450s have more torque than the 660s due to lower gearing to compensate for lower HP output.

I have a 450 and it is a great machine. You can't go wrong. Also if you have problems there are some great forums that will help you.

I'm more concerned with power climbing hills, but what top speed you getting? May need to run down the road to tend pop's cows

Top end is about 35 plenty to run down cows. That is basically what I use mine for. Power isn't anything it lacks.

My buddy has one and has worked the hell out of it with zero problems.

After the shite I just put my ranger crew through, while riding in much more comfortable conditions, I wouldn't even think.about anything else.
