I'm considering buying this model. Does anybody have any links that might provide a review of the 05 model?

 

No links, but here's an opinion on my '03. I don't think AC has changed too much, but I'm sure there's something a little different between the '03 and '05.

PROS
Smooth comfortable ride
Good price
Good control decending steep hills with low gears
Super low range really helps make up for less power, especially with a load
Low center of gravity (less tippy)
2wd-4wd selection is easy. Makes steering easier and probably saves gas
Quiet
Good racks

CONS
No (standard) fan on oil cooler. I suspect there should be one there for better temp control.
Lots of shifting to find power with the smaller motor
Shifter could work smoother. Sometimes it's a bit awkward
Poor mud protection
Park brake is hydraulic, and bleeds off after a couple hours.
Right foot (rear) brake is nearly useless

All in all it's still about the best value in a "full featured" quad. Hope this helps
