With the XP 900 soon to be obsolete, I am trying to decided if I want to keep my two seater XP 900 (for me) and teryx 4 (four the family) or just have one machine.

I have a really good deal on the table for a new XP 900 4. So my question is....... Do you guys miss your two seaters????

Personally, I would not go back to a two seater after having the four seater. The added wheelbase really makes a big difference in climbing and crawling  cheers

Do they feel bigger when driving one as opposed to a two seater? And do you find that you have to plan your turns more and maybe have to make more three-point turns?

just looking from the outside it looks like the trend is headed toward 4 seaters more and more

At first it does take some getting used to when navigating tight sections. You have to plan approaches into tight sections differently. However, once you've driven a four seater for a bit it becomes second nature. I put a suicide knob on ours and I can whip in/out of tight sections with ease.

The added wheelbase makes steep/rocky sections look easy.

Mines a 4-seater , same chassis, with two-seats. I agree.

Nothing rides or climbs like a 4-seater. Couldn't imagine going back to a 2-seater !  T-4

My opinion the two best things to install on a 4 seater are uhmw skid plate and treebars

You already know my thoughts on it. I was very tempted buy an evasive green 900 2 seater and keep the sliver 800 as the wifes buggy. We decided it made more since to just get the 4 seater. I wasn't crazy about the idea. It wasn't to long after I had sold my sport bike (me only toy) to buy a boat for a family toy. Then next thing I know my sporty 2 seat RZR is getting swapped out for a 4 seat station wagon... Even when I picked up I told the guys in the dealership, well I got kids so you know I'll have to deal with it lol.. Now I can say I honestly love it. Rides better, is more stable and when its just the two of us or even just me I love the extra space. I wish the 1ks weren't so long. I love my 900 but you know your driving a long machine. I'm not sure I'd be ok with something longer.
