Im used to riding utilty quads. Now im thinking about getting a raptor sport quad. Does the raptor preform ok in water, mud, and hills? Im concerned about getting it because of 2wd, does it get stuck easy? I will be doing things you do on utilty quads like mud and water, but also stuff like donuts and wheelies.

The raptor will go most places with ease. It is not a 4x4 though and will get stuck in the deep mud so bring a friend along to pull you out. Chet

Going trough mud you'll get stuck alot if there is any ruts. Water alone they do pretty good in if the bottom is soild and not alot of gravel. They spin out pretty easy because of the power. If it deep enough to float they do real good. They will go up hills just a good as a 4 wheel drive does unless there tall rocks to go over. It all come down to the low ground clearnce.
