They said that the vinnie won the "king of the mountain" shootout, and say that the reason for the "delightful feel of the Zuke is due to a team of engineers who understand that atvs need to be fun to ride,"
"The zook is so well put together that it had testers clamoring to try it on most of the trails we rode!"
I'd love to see the Eiger or Vinson come and be the King of My mountain!!! Also, why would the Sportsman 500 not be able to hang with that group???????? Its faster than the Honda, has 2wd/4wd seletability!! Will outperform ANY of them in the mud, the SP500HO should take all of them in speed!!! Will easily DEVASTATE all in the rock climbing and rides alot more comfortable??? FUN is in the eyes of the riders!!! For me I don't care which is the "FUNNEST" to ride, I'm more into where it can go!!! So for me DIFF LOCK is VERY IMPORTANT!!! The POLARIS will in fact GO where the others MENTIONED CANNOT!
You're right, the ride is very comfortable on the Polaris in the hill and rock climbing,...........until you tip it over because of the spongy suspension.

Very true, been there, seen that. Get a little up on one side in the front and that IRS just squatts! Muddin' on the other hand, that clearance helps!

Your right FUN is in the mind of the rider. Some machines inspire confidence in some riders and scare the heck out of others. But really, aint we all out there having fun?

I'd love to come down to Tellico (wherever it is). My Father-in-law lives outside Knoxville on Tellico lake around Loudon Tenn. Are you close to this? How about that coal creek area, I hear (read) that it is an awsome place.
Tellico is in Murphy North Carolina! In fact the start of Trail six is pretty much right on the Tenn-NC state line!! I live in Alabama close to Huntsville, so for me its just a 2-3 hour drive!!! I love it up there! Its not your AVERAGE FUN for EVERYONE kindov place though!! Its very EXTREME riding!! Mostly rock crawling and deep mud riding and some creek crossings!!! A winch or someone in your group with a winch is a DEFINATE MUST!! I use mine EVERY trip! LOL! They have Jeep Jamborees there that have been televised on ESPN and the Speed channel! There is a village just a few miles from the start of the trail system where you can rent campers and cabins and even a hotel there!!! The trails are incredible!!! Very HIGH in elevation and very fun to drive up through there and stop and watch the Custom jeeps and Hybrids FLIP, ROLL, and try their best to make it!!! I would DEFINATELY recommend anyone to go there just once and you will be hooked if EXTREME riding is something you enjoy!

I believ there are a couple quad pullers on this forum who run Vinnies.

Muddyeiger, not to rub it in but the mud was very sloppy!!!! The snow in the hills wasn't melted yet and the creek was still frozen back in the hills. Rooster tails everywhere you look! The creek crossings were muddy and icy! Man, did we have fun! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

BTW you can't beat the Eiger for fun-for-the-dollar. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
