I doubt a 1100 lb Rhino does air time and landings very well.

5 feet may be a stretch for most of us but trust me, you can get the wheels off the ground on a utv. They are harder to break and cheaper to repair, imo. Its an apples to oranges comparison.

I have yet to find anything that was priced what I thought it was worth.

Oh, unless I'm the one selling it.

that being said, i went out and spent over 7k on a new quad...lol....

expensive? yes....but i like it alot...i trail ride, use it around the yard, snow plow....i'm glad i got it

Yes over priced. I hope they don't turn WAY overpriced the snowmobiles have gone. I know a bunch of guys that were priced out of that hobby.

A salesperson could not have said it any better, "How do you think we pay for all those jets that protects our skies?"
