Default Fuel Economy?

About how well do each of the 600+ utility quads (Grizz, Sportsman, Rincon, Prairie) do on fuel economy? Buying a new one of these soon and Im interested to know if I'll need to carry xtra gas with the trips Im planning, or at least how far I can reasonably plan to go. Thanks!

I think 20 MPG would be in the ball park for a Sportsman. Don't know about the others.

They all should be about the same at 15 or so. You would think EFI would be a little better, but that is not a given. If you are worried about how far to go on a singe tank just look at the fuel capacity. For example, the Arctic Cat 650 has a 7.0 gallon tank while the Sportsman 700 has a 4.8 gallon tank.
