Hi there, i'm a fellow "tractor-men" from Portugal.
I want to ask if anyone have tried this two vehicles. Here in Portugal the options are less then in North America or so, and a lot more expesive. For exemple the two vehicles I'm asking about cost around 15.000€ (aprox 20.600 dollars...), And gas cost around 1,86 dollars per liter, so it has to be diesel, who cost less then half.
And the new xuv from john deere is yet to become avaiable.
Well, but that kind of problems aside, I'm down to this two choices, and they are to be used in a farm, with some mud and sand, mostly to wonder around, not to do really hard work. I want the fastest possible on diesel. It has to be diesel, or I would buy a rhyno.
I'll get a better deal on the rtv900, but it has less power then the mule and it's heavier and uglier. On your experience what do you think? Wish one is more reliable? Is there any significant speed diference? Do this utv's really have enough power to climb hills for ex? (I'm replacing an yamaha 4x4 atv 400, so I'm afraid I'll be really disapointed).
Thanks for the attention!
