No, the 500's do not have the versatility of the KQ, but they do have the low/high range.
I think that the KQ and its features have been designated as strictly "utility", and nothing more.
I have heard stories of amazing feats of strength, that that Quad has accomplished with the superlow gearing.
Therefore, when they built the 500's, I think that the goal was to introduce their first Sport/Utility Quad.
As far as my experiences have gone with the Quadrunner, I put it in 1st gear, low range, and pulled free, a full size Ford ext. cab long box, that was stuck on a muddy road.
I couldn't believe it, the winch wouldn't budge it, so I hooked the tow rope to the back hitch, and yanked it right out.
One KQ feature, that I think they should incorporate into the Quadrunner/Quadmaster, is the is the ability to lock the front end on demand.
