Wow, It was quite an adventure. I tried the same thing last summer pulling my cousin's 36hp tractor out of the mud with my P650 on 4wd and front diff-lock. But I weight 145 pounds, the 4 wheels dug four inches deep holes spinning on the four wheels (this thing was heavyman). Then, I got on the tractor and my cousin weighing 252 pounds and his helper weighing about the same got on the P650. Wow, still spinning and slowly moving, we managed the pull it out. It was unbeliable, viva el V-TWIN powered 4wd machines!

Just so I understand correctly, you pulled out a jeep (approx 4000 lbs) stuck in snow to the point where it couldn't move. With a Kawasaki Prarie 700??? I gotta assume the guy was in the jeep hittin the gas right?? If not I believe you're defying the basic laws of physics. Of course I could be wrong I'm no physicist. and if you DID do that well I'll be, I swear I'm going to go buy a Prarie [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Yea.. I believe it... I've pulled my C1500 Sierra ext cab 2wd truck out of the snow with my P700.. and I bet my truck weighs closer to 6,000lbs! Plus, I have puller my tandem axle trailer FULL of firewood out of the woods with my P700 twice.. and I bet it weighed in at close to 8-10,000lbs then! Just so your not thinking "yeah right, the tongue weight would be too much!!" I built a dolly cart to hold the tongue of the trailer, and I hook to the cart! So the cart absorbs up most of the tongue weight....

I LOVE MY P700!!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

We haul a 10,000 lb drag sled around 20 mph. We can pull it farther than a two wheel drive pickup truck can.

I love to hea storys like this, I love my Praire. Actually almost any quad can do this but its still cool. Weight makes all the difference. I was pull this stump out of the pasture on my dad's '98 quadrunner 500 and it would not pull it in reverse, it would just spin. So I got my brothers friend to sit on the front end and it pulled it like nothing. Weight on the front end is key to pulling heavy loads.

I jumped start a volkswagon jetta early 90's model i pulled it down the road in 3rd gear. It finally started after doing 30mph in 4wheel drive on the prarie this is by far the funnest quad i have ever owned.
