i would really think the ranger is better IMO smoother ride and has a better top end too sometimes that comes in handy

I would also go with the Ranger, not because I am a Polaris owner, but because I feel it is all-around a better machine. When I was looking for a new machine, I considered the Rhino and the Ranger, also looked at Kawasaki. I test drove all of them. I have to say the power, speed and comfort of the Ranger wins hands-down over the Rhino. I was close to getting one. I was thinking about putting a cab on it so I wouldn't freeze my butt off when driving it in cold weather. A little portable heater plugged in to the 12V adapter would have been great.

Gets me thinking about it again. Maybe I'll run down to the dealer tomorrow and look at them again....lol.

You can put a stock Griz CDI on the Rhino and approach 60mph on top end.

If you want to sit and look like you're a groundskeeper or driving your grandpa's golf cart...the Ranger's all you. If you want true comfort and the actual feel of performance off-roading....get a hold of these guys www.blackrhinoperformance and "hold on".[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Don't get me wrong, I love the ranger XP....just can't stand sitting on a 90 degree bench seat and positioned like your driving a semi truck.
