Dunner~

Tough question, as I see it what may be a pro for me could be a con for someone else. I will tell you what I like about the 02 660 Grizzly, though.

Incredible, snappy power. Excellent ground clearns, IRS, true 4X4 that is on Command not "demand", functional easy to read display, light wieght for it's size. It's a very fun quad to ride.

Cons, for me: Stock tires are junk, too small, and too narrow. (Everybody is using Dunlops for their OEM tires now, it seems, with the exception of Polaris). Reverse is geared too high. (An issue you'll never notice unless you bypass your reverse limiter.)

All in all, I do believe it to be the best choice out there for a big bore utility quad, but honestly all the top dogs would do fine.

My decision process....

Pros:
1-proven engine (Raptor).
2-simple engine- one carb, one piston, etc... I want this to last a long
time, the less that can go wrong, the better for me.
3-IRS and the amount of travel.
4-light weight (relatively speaking).
5-ground clearance.
6-winch and plow incentive (I took the plow and opted for the Warn 2500).
7-prefered the 4-locked button, especially for plowing.
8-looks the *****.

Cons:
1-stock tires suck big time
2-racks are okay, I would prefer the Polaris composite ones
3-rev limiter for reverse and 4-locked
