i saw one this wkend crash and roll like 3-4 times over and head over heels ..all crazy

they were going real fast and lost it in a spin and caught a rock ..you know the rest

anyway...once we flppied it over and pulled the people out ..the only thing wrong was a bent rear tire..it started up and drove for the rest of the day...

basically this thing is biult real good, they had a chip, pipe and nice tires on it, this thing was fast and went everywhere , the quads were..it was pretty cool..i would get one

I just got one a few months ago and love it. I dont speed on mine but its a crazy cool ride and I can follow the quads just about anywhere they go. I got pics on my page if you want to check it out.

I just spent two weeks in Texas hunting and I did have a guy in the back. We weren't jumping it or riding it hard, just because I didn't want to scare the deer. I do have to say this thing climbs like a billy goat. I drove it through the ponds and stopped in the water to see if it would get stuck. I did not get stuck nor did I even come close to getting stuck. I do have to say that I threw on some ITP mud lites and these really make a nice addition and truly make this thing unstoppable. I gave it about 3 days of riding before I called it broke in. Then, I whomped on it to the limiter. I don't have the Speedo on it yet, it was on back order. But I had a truck follow me and it hit about 45 mph. I put a deer in it and hauled it back to the house. I worked over 1800 acres and had not one problem. I do have to say that the ITP tires seem aggressive but they don't rip up the terrain if you don't get into it. I liked that. The last thing is the stock lighting is weak. So I have designed a custom light bar for it and it will hold 3-5 55 watt HID driving lights. The width is perfect. If it was six inches wider it would have been too wide for driving through the trees. I would put money on it that the arctic cat prowler will take a back seat in the woods. In some cases I only had an inch or two of clearance. The roughest area I got into was a creek bed and it was crazy. It was at night and it had 1-2 foot ditches everywhere. I just put it in 4 WD and aimed it and crawled right through it. I had the front end up in the air an at most times I had one tire in the air. The independent suspension was awesome!! That’s it for now. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Just can't justify the cost. could buy a good used 4x4 pick-up truck with that kinda cash.They just don't impress me yet. Maybe when they come out with the 800 e.f.i. Rhino...then I would be interested.

Back to the Rhino ...
We have an '06 Rhino, and it is great. I have a set of Maxxis MaxLite wheels and 27" ITP XTR Radials on it, and that Rhino is a tank. I installed a 11:1 piston and a torque cam, and with those mods it turns the 27" tires real easy, with power to spare. It is a really fun utility vehicle. It won't replace a sport quad for speed and handling, but it easily replaces any utility ATV I have ever owned (including a Grizzly 660).
