Default Which brand to buy??

I plan to buy a RUV. I have been looking at a Rhino. I will use it to fix fence, check cows and hunt with. I think the Rhino is sportier looking than most but will it hold up? I am concerned about the plastic on the box. Also the box looks to be smaller than some brands.
I don't need a hot-rod but the 660 seems to have much more power than the 440. I drove both models and thought they were both noisier than my Honda Rancher. I have heard the 660 is much louder than the 440. What do you think?
Any suggestions about the Rhino or any other brand?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

Check out the Arctic Cat Prowler. It has a larger bed and larger capacity. It also comes standard with the digital dash and 14" wheels.

I live in the country and use my Rhino for spraying pasture, fencing, hunting and all the regular ranch work. Works great for it. I also just got back from Little Sahara, Oklahoma and the Rhino climbed every dune and followed every trail I took it on. The ATVs couldn't shake me on the trails until they took me into some stuff with lots of over hanging branches. I slowed down to keep from knocking my MR-16 HID light off my roll bar. I've also got a Prairie 650 and when we are out playing it's always a fight between my wife and I for how has to ride the Prairie. We need 2 Rhinos in this family.

I forgot to mention if you want to purchase aftermarket stuff for your UTV, the Rhino has a lot of people producing quality after market stuff for it.
