Looking at getting a side x side Rhino or RZR.

I own one, RZR, and still bash it. You are right Ronnie tho.

Big R Well done
I don't have to worry about to much.....I got a Cat

"Now you get offended any time some one says anything about the RZR."

Not me, I know what it really is...............

sounds like a plan.............

Iv'e been a good boy and have been keeping quite

Why doesn't somebody buy a KIMCO or something so we can all talk trash about it instead.

I hear the Kimco is a pretty good machine

Well thanks Big R for a few of those comments (i think ) Ive had a RZR LE or S for over a year, we use to be able to kid around with each other all in fun but the tension on the forum about the RZR only came about when a lot of the Rhino owners went out and bought them. There has been a few that are just dead set on making the RZR look like a POS for some reason and some guys just dont want to speak back to the BS that gets thrown out about the RZR, so most times I end up the focus cause I dont take shit from shitheads. I see it this way, we go out and buy what we want, we are not forced to make the choice we do and after we have had time to test it we are either happy or were not, some choose to sit around and whine , some take out there frustration by lashing out at guys who are happy with their choice and some just man up and buy something else.

... Just so everyone knows how i feel here it is. I like the RZR and the RZR S, do i think its perfect? hell no, no brand is period! Do i hate other brands, hell No, but if i thought one would have served me better i would have BOUGHT it. Do i care that a guy bought a rhino or a teryx or a kymco, hell no! Youre welcome to come ride with me no matter what you have period! This is a great forum but its nothing compared to getting out and riding with friends, if more would do that and get to know each other in person then things would probably be better here too. Ok, flame away, some will not be able to resist im sure.

I forgive you :Teryx:

Totally agree! lets kill all the

yes we should and get back to the original post by tri5chevy

I had an 06 rhino and now I have a 2010 rzr and there are things that I like and dislike about both. The rhino is a very good unit that is very capable of both trail riding and a little work around the farm. The rzr is a machine that is geared towards the trails, it is without a doubt a very capable trail machine but as far as loading it with supplies and checking the fences it really is not and IMO was not built to be.

Rhino is going to be my choice when I go home for deer season. That RZR S is not built to haul treestands and deer.

I don't have to have treestands. Just walk out the front door.

I don't hunt but I keep a salt block behind the house so I can keep an eye on my deer.

Shane.......need someone to come and kill some of those deer for ya?? I can bring Rhino and beer. I will only need you to cover gas, food, and per diem.

Chris come on up. Just stop on the way up and get your IND deer permit.
You don't even need bring your Rhino. Bring your RZR and after the kill we will ride.

I know it's not the question BUT......If I was considering a new machime purchase today I would need to take a hard look at the new Ranger XP. Thrillseeker has an 07 Ranger XP 700, and before I got my 08 RZR we did some riding in his machine, that is the machine that got me into the SXS market. That Ranger has come along with us a few times with his friends driving it and let me tell you, it is DAM capable!!! So I figure the new XP will be even better. I dont have alot of property or require any real work out of my machine, but if I wanted the best of both worlds, I would really consider it. Also being able to put three people in XP and not needing to climb in and out of the thing like a sports car makes it more enjoyable for me.

I think you are right. The XP would be a great machine for the farm and a whole lot of fun in the trails. As long as the trails are not made for 4 wheelers. Then you would need to get another 4 wheeler........

I tottally agree. A XP-800 should be parked in my garage right now , only because I kinda jumped the gun , I bought an S, it's a great machine but really barely fits my daily needs. I ride almost everyday with my 4-year old and sometimes wife, it's hard to get all the support equipment in an S, toys, chips, chairs and try to seat three. The 800's are in -stock at my dealer, I might trade the S in...........The XP is the same width as an S I think, so trails so far would'nt be a problem.

You had better not trade that S. You talk to me before you do anything like that........

The XP Ranger is a great machine. I saw Big Orange's in action and it ate up some difficult trails with ease. And that was with 27" Bighorns. Imagine what it could have done with Man Tires on it.

Yes, I forgot about Big Orange. Also rode with them last spring. Machine looks great and was very capable.
