Thoughts on RZR vs. RZR - S??

You will never see the 850 in a rzr, it would require a totally new chassis, it would go into a big ranger first if they even do it or a new mid size vehicle. The rzr has just been out 2 years and just worked out its bugs, they will not make major changes to it for several more years is my guess.

Thrillseeker is right about the S it gets a good bit less MPG than the standard. 10 or 15 more trail miles means alot when youre in the woods and looking to get back to the truck.

Thats why u have friends with rhinos [grocery getters] to carry your extra gas etc.

Damn Beck,

You haven't owned an RZR for just a few days and your already bashing the old trusty Rhino. Don't worry it will also pull you out of the woods when you break down

I will definately miss all that power the brakes squeeeeeling and that famous backfire.

Yep, you start to really miss the problem free machines after you buy a PO PO.

Yeah Gunny, you should get a 1000 trouble free miles out of your po po. So you might want to trade in five years from now. Now Chris will be able to keep his rhino for the rest of his life

How many miles do you have on your RZR??????

well not that many only 300 so far, if the official group rides were not so few and far between i would have way more. Maybe you can talk to the guy in charge and get more planned I cant just go every weekend, the closet place worth riding is over 200 miles away.

FT Campbell to Brimstone= 200+ miles

I have racked up the miles on my truck and my Rhino for sure!

Big Ed, back to your original question. I wanted to buy a RZR. I am sure I would have been happy with an LE. The only reason I went with an S is I really like to run fast when the terrain permits. I know that once I come back from deployment I will be moving to eastern VA. The riding there will be mostly flat, open areas and possibly some areas down close to the beach. I agree with most here. For general trail riding you cannot go wrong with an LE. I know where a real nice is, priced right........and I think you do too


I cannot comment on the overall quality of the machine yet since I have not gotten to ride it more than just down the street. I can tell you this......."the wife" is excited for me to go break it in for her this upcoming weekend.

Yeah Chris I believe I will hit it 2010.
