Looking at a Teryx
I now own a Rhino(06) and am thinking about a Teryx. Question,do you own one and would you by another? Also,how about the the quietness? Better or worse than the Rhino?FI? How well does it work? How do you like the V Twin Engine? Build quality? Thanks for any help,Willie

It's just as loud. I thought the springs were a little stiffer on the teryx and of course the teryx is a little wider, but overall they ride very similar. I like the push button differential lock on the Rhino MUCH MUCH MUCH better than the manual operated one on the teryx. Don't have FI because mine is a 2008. The 750 runs stronger than the 660 but I haven't had a chance to get in a 700 Rhino yet. The new FI Teryx and 700 Rhino are supposed to run pretty even.
Would I buy it again??? Maybe. But I'd be tempted to buy a 6 seater Polaris Ranger at this point.

I have an 09 FI Teryx and so far I love it. I'm not sure how the other brands FI work but the Kawi FI takes some getting use to. The build quality seems fine. I really like the ride quality and I just added a cage extension/2 bucket seats for the kids.
At this point I would buy another Teryx in a heart beat.
Hope this helps.

I have a 2008 Teryx so I don't have EFI but I have really enjoyed it, It defiantly has a little more power then the Rhino 660 of course with the bigger motor and being a v-twin I would defiantly buy another especially now that they are fuel injected and have made many improvements on the 2009 and newer models.

I bought a used 2008 and it can be a ton of fun but; it is in the shop right now because the air filter design allowed dirt in. $1500-2500. Really annoyed by this. I'm told I should service the air filter every ride. ridiculously poor engineering. It's loud and hot too. on the plus side the chassis rides and handles well. I have a 03 Honda Rubicon with 4000 miles that has the air filter serviced once or twice a year. ALWAYS starts. ALWAYS runs. NEVER uses oil. Come on Can't any one make a sporty sxs that isn't weak and needy?

The only thing I didn't like when I tried the Teryx out is that the pedals are way too high off the floor. It's not at all like a car where you just pivot your foot off your heel and hit the brake. I have size 13 feet (yes, moose sized) and found I had to lift my foot off the gas, move it back and over to the left, and then lift again to get my foot on the brake pedal. I felt this was unsafe for me as I was in a line of quads and UTVs and didn't think the time it took to get on the brake was safe.

You think maybe the extra 10" in width might have a little something to do with the stability differences???
