I still had peddle left but it was not my ranger so I stayed easy on it.

other than the dash, I didn't notice any differences between the two, other than the speed limiter on the 07 is up 6 mph to 50

the xp o7's in my area, Bakersfield, Ca, are priced at around 11 grand.
I just bought my 06 xp, regular green, for 9999 out the door, up in the bay area.

i cant believe that poeple think rhinos are slow. one guy said a ranger xp beat like 11 rhinos. was there a handicap? i have a rhino with about 500 bucks in bolt-on parts and i ride with sport quads and 4x4 wheelers in tight new hampshire trails and keep up just fine. it accutally smokes any solid rear end 4x4 quads and some of the larger 4x4 quads. i even burn a 350 raptor in a drag until he shifts out of fourth (190 lb rider on 05' raptor 350). the ranger is a workhorse. if you want to charge down the trails get a rhino.
