If you do get a bigger quad (Honda-I guess) and Vampires, you should definately get a locker kit to give you true AWD instead of the traditional limited-slip.

I think the Rubicon is what you need. But most people keep talking about the Rubicon and Rancher's 3 wheel drive. The new AP front differential does not allow one wheel to spin and the other to just sit. We will have to see if this is the case when someone rides them, but from what I gathered from all the articles on them, they are true four wheel drive.

The Rubicon MAY set the ATV world on
it's ear, but right now I would advise you
to at least take a ride on a Arctic Cat
500 automatic. It is a very nice machine
and feels like a Honda. (everything fits
right,feels right, screwed together right)

Evensen 98 Magnum 425, soon to be joined
by either Sp 500 or Cat-o-Matic.
They will be hauled around in
a long box 2000 V-10 fourdoor
(crew cab) F 350 delight from
Detroit.

You can see pics of the Ford in it's
proper setting on a Moose hunt at:

That is a Kawasaki quad in the back. This
was just before I got the Magnum.

One more small thing- the article-
"First Look At The Rubicon" seems to have
expired or disapeared. What happened to it?

Ahh... Super Duty F350. Is there a meaner looking vehicle made? Maybe an M1 Abrams, but that doesn't really count.

I think you should get the Rancher S. However if I was made of money I would get the Rubicon, since I know your not get the rancher. I bet your brother's 450 will still beat you once he gets his Vamps on it.
