I've read reviews about it. It's obviously a work horse, not something that's gonna be tearing up the trails with blinding speed and scary acceleration. It is more of a tractor in ATV clothing. If you need it to do a lot of work, and have other machines around that run on Diesel, then it makes sense. One of the reviewers wrote that he was disappointed with the machine because it was sluggish, did not handle well, and weighed to much. To this I say "No ****, it's a Diesel." Just make sure that the machine matches your needs.

Well I got a diesel truck and its not a hot rod. but man that thing pull my stuff no problems. the reason i consider a diesel atv is the simplicity that diesels brings no spark plug to foul, no ignition to replace, and that wonderful sound that they make that sets them apart from gas quads. and I dont realy go fast when I'm on my quad no just cruise and enjoy the trails. also what Id like to know is how well would this atv do on hills. and no I wouldnt trade my sportsman for it. I dont think I'm ever going to part with my sportsman. I wish Polaris made a diesel atv

I was riding in Harlan County Ky last weekend and met up with a group and one was riding a new AC diesel. He said it was awesome in the torque catagory but wouldn't win any speed contests. Top speed was about 43 mph. He was gonna try the Widowmaker hill on it later in the day, don't know if he made it. A Prarie didn't make it the night before and the guy took it home in a box. I did notice it will run on about 5 different types of fuel, on and off road diesel, biodiesel, JP 5, kerosene, and probably even used engine oil?? (military specs) He said there was a aftermarket turbo you could add, and it was really supposed to wake up the thing.
