I've been working my new RTV 900 pretty good the last few days, and I thought I would write a review based on the three hours I have put on it so far. I chose to go with the RTV 900, because it is a worker. I haul a lot of Fire Wood, and If I want to ride fast and furious, I'll stick to my quad.
Pro's: Right off the bat I noticed how much stronger the frame, and components Were compared to the Polaris Ranger, and the Kawasaki Mule. The Kubota Diesel Has seemed unstoppable so far. I had the entire dump bed loaded up as High as it would go with heavy clay, at the bottom of a small hill. I put it in medium, and it walked right up. The power steering is very nice. I like the big brush guard in the front, it seems stronger then the other brands. The engine brake is so strong, you don't even need the brake.
Con's: Little to no storage. The shifter is a little touchy, (no problem for me, but my wife has some trouble.) Higher cost of Maintenance. (UDT and Filter.)
I realize it is early yet, but overall I am happy with the machine, and there were no surprises. I new the Maintenance was going to be higher, and I new about the storage. I also would point out that the machine is heavier than other UTV's out there. This means using a trailer, or in my case a loading dock.
