i currently own a 06 700 Raptor and i love it,,,BUT i am now looking for a 4X4, i will use if for mud and for my ol lady to ride until i move to northern idaho and its all woods up there, SO my question is which do u think is better the 07 700 CAT, or the 07 700 Grizzly, from what i have found, the top speed is about the same, the Cat should have better power on bottom end, and the suspension is better on the Cat, But the Grizzly has ELECTRIC POWER STEERING and ON COMMAND 4wheel,,,,what is youre all opinion,,,would love owners opinions

I would say the Grizz. I'm not sure why you say the AC has a better suspension ?? From what I've heard, the new Grizz rides every bit as nice as any other ute out there. It's also lighter than the AC and quicker.

The less it weighs, the less dead weight it gonna be able to pull. If you are using it for a true work horse, weight is your friend. It also helps when you are trying to stop a heavy load. Plowing needs lots of weight. I prefer Polaris for this but AC has the heavy built frames and large axles also. I would think either would get the job done. All ute's have there pro's and cons. It's all bout what you want it for.

The Two sportiest utes are The BF 650 SRA and of the Can-am's 500,650,800s. There is also a Can-am Renegade do out next month that is basicly a sport 4x4.
As far as the two machines you mentioned. I think they both have there pros, and cons But the sportiers of the two or the faster will be the Grizz. Faster lighter more adgile. The last Kitty I road was a well built machine but it was heavy and do to the fact it has a true IRS and no sway bar the spring rates are set very high to try and keep it stable, so IMO it was a pretty stiff ride compared to other machines on the market. The suk.KQ 700, that the 700 kitty gets its drivetrain from is probably a better comparison for the Grizz, similar power to weight ratios ect,ect,ect. But a lower price where as the Kitty is priced up there with the Can-ams.
