Looking at getting a side x side Rhino or RZR.

I do have a small piece of land that I use my ATV on but for the most part my ATV is used for trail riding. Most of the trails that I ride are tight four wheeler trails, but my Rhino buddies get through them fine with alot of rubbing. I would like to here form people that have had both or have both. I also do alot of riding at Brimestone and Harlen haven't had the chance to ride Bell county yet. Any and all opinons will be appreciated.

If you have super tight trails.
a regular RZR , would work best.
But i had a Rhino , and i could go any where the RZR
guys could. So i just really boils down to what you like.
if you like power , and the fun factor.
Get an RZR. if you carry alot of cargo. or want
a bigger bed. Then i would get a Rhino.
if your going to ride Brimstone. and other large riding
areas , Then get an RZR-S , You will love it.
its wider , but rides better than anything out there right now.
and it has the power to do what ever you want.
Just depends on your riding style , and where
you plan to ride.....

chris has good advice, ask your buds that you ride with that has em. they will let you try em

If you are not going to haul a lot of gear or use it for too much work, go with the RZR. I have a Rhino and RZR. I love them both. The RZR is more fun on trails, IMO. The Rhino is a fine machine. It will do most anything you want it to do.

They both do well in the trails, ride both then decide.

What kind of work do you do with it, or would you plan on doing with it?

IMO, RZRs are essentially a trail machine only. The bigger Ranger is their combination work/play machine. You may want to consider their new midsize, and test drive it. I haven't seen one yet, so I'm not sure how big it is. The 800s are too big for many New England trails -- you'll see a few being used for trail maintenance, but not many just for fun riding...

I agree with most everyone here but I see no one has mentioned the price tag. If you have the cash the S would be nice as well as the 700 Rhino just depends on your needs and the size of your wallet. Everyone really brags on the ride you get with the S but what is the difference in the price between it and the 700 Rhino? I know I have seen the 700 for less the 8000.

If your rhino buddies are rubbing as you say, you dont want a S, but being there is no 2010 rhino and some have said it could be the end of the road for the model you can probably get a great deal on one of them.

And who exactly said that?

And you wonder why people react to some of the you post...

X2. I think they will do away with the Rhino name, just because of the law suits. Yamaha will always make a Rhino. It just might have a different name.

There you go trying to start with me over something others posted. If you would just keep up, you wouldn't have to learn from others is going on. I just read it in this topic, read it yourself.

And if you'd read on down that thread that you just posted:

Quote :

No 2010 Rhino side-by-side info until February. Currently, 2009 Rhino 450 and 700 models will be delivered through January with February slated as the 2010 model year roll out. Quote from the 2010 ATV intro: "Rhino will continue to be a core focus for our side-by-side line-up when we introduce the 2010 models at a later date."

You must just be trying to

Surely you're not dumb enough to actually believe some of the you post -- and this is just more of it...

Here we go again, someone asked for some info. And some trying to give some feed back. Then some trying to start to . I don't try to get caught by in all the drama. But this is really getting old.

Sorry for all that try5chevy. Its like what alot have just depends on what your needs are. I'm sure by glad with either choice.

No, Gunny...

If you want to publicly post then I'll continue to publicly call you on it...

I was very objective in what I posted -- while you're posting and you knew it when you posted it...

Man up or shut up, IMO...

yeah i was going to have to decide between a rzr and a rhino 700, i picked the rhino because of yamaha reliablilty,the locker system,and you could do just more "work" then in a rzr or rzr-s,but the rzr is a very good machine,but we haul lots of wood and things when we camp .but thats MY opinion you choose the one that best fits your budget and needs

Ok fellers..........Please stick to the topic.

If I had to do it again tomorrow, I'd buy a Ranger XP-800. I like the S, don't get me wrong, but it just barely fits my needs. I'm kind of second-guessing my purchase now. In fact, I may sell it............

I see the master lock coming

Well I guess everyone can leave this forum. I mean I was told by gunny that this is his house. He owns it so we can all leave and he can post comments to himself.

I know the feeling... but how would he able to whine about people "bashing PoPos" if he's the only one allowed to post...

Glad to see that I'm not the only one picking up on his BS...

Ok every body......take a pull off this ....there all better now???? I went back and re read the entire thread and I think that what Gunny had commented to about the "Rhino Buddies " rubbing was miss under stood, or taken out of text....

Look ....we are all in this for the same reasons...kinda like "Brothers in Arms".....so lets all get along and think before ya type!!

Sorry Fox, not strong enough. How bout a handful of these?




Because of the shit stirrin, manipulating, serial RZR basher that I am. The tension on this forum is all my fault. I take full responsibility.
