Had to buy a new toy today..

[Bocephous]

My wife has the GX 850 Kubota and I'm pretty sure it would suck the paint clean off that Mule.

In what way? They look pretty comparable.

Top speed and acceleration. Not that I really care about it anyway.

Top speed on the Kubota GX = 40mph
Top speed on the Kawaski Pro MX = 45mph

Actually according to the Speedo the other night I hit 52mph at 3/4 throttle. Not sure if I hit limiter cuz of break in.

Interesting, the one my wife bought tops out at 53. It's not a GX, it's a GS whatever the hell that means I have no idea. It's a 2 cylinder fuel injected Subaru gas motor with a IVT final drive.

Better take a look at the speedo. The mule shows kpm, not mph.

I didn't buy it anyway. My wife did. I'm perfectly happy with my Honda Foreman quad. She bought it for the bed on the back so she could haul her 'stuff' in it., so it's not mine and candidly I don't much like it anyway. I much prefer the quad.

Who cares what your wife has?
The thread is about a newly purchased KAWASAKI UTV, isn't it?
