I just bought an 09 a few days ago
Cant give you a whole lot of info but I will give you what I know

I burnt half a tank so far and got 60km (keep in mind its th first tank, not broken in and a lot of speeding up and slowin down etc for the break in)

Seems to be quite a bit of belt/clutch noise at low speeds and just before stopping as well as at idle but apparently all normal

It has unbelieveable TORQUE!
You have to hold on when you crack the throttle thats for sure

2wd 4wd and diff lock all work great

Suspension is nice and firm but could be better (I have the shocks adjusted on the softest setting for now)

Gets to 100km/hr in I would say max 5 seconds

Stock tires are TERRIBLE!...as most ar but these are useless..Way to soft and no tread ( I will be putting 28x10x12 on all 4 corners)

When putting through rough trails orjust poking around the woods, Low is a must, but all around great for the trails and even though it seems light when driving it, its not...WINCH is a must in case you get stuck as there is no throwing this thing around by hand...I am very careful while riding by myself till I get a Warn 3000LB winch installed!

If I could go back in time 3 days would I buy it again???...YES
