Default Want to get a rhino..BUT I NEED ADVICE

Hey im gettin a 2006 used rhino 450 next week for a good price.....ive been on a 660 and i loved it and i heard the 450 does just as good....well anyway i was hearing about the rhinos being easy to roll......im exprienced with regular atvs and ive never came close to crashing or rolling......but are people rolling rhinos because they are poorly designed??? or are people just driving stupid and careless????please i need a RHINO owners opinion before i buy it.....thanx

MIKE

660 is the only way to go! Put on wider tires,and you should have no problems.

I have had mine on such a steep angle that I would have slid out if not for the seat belt, but never felt it wanted to roll

The 450's close. It runs a little slower on bigger hill climbs and runs out of pep a little sooner than the 660 does. In the sand I don't see/feel any tippyness at all. In the dirt I do, but only when I make sharp turns or donuts. At one point I had it on 2 wheels. Since that point, I take the turns (in dirt) much slower...

Ummmm before anyone does this read the post started by keith!!!

(sorry i'm actually trying to be funny)

i got a used 660 lkast year - was tempted by the 450 but i figured for the extra 20% in price it was worth it. but i have heard 450 is just as good at the 660 most of the time.

about tipping: it's driver error but to be safe you can get wheel spacers or wider tires or both.
