Th eRTV's climbing ability is only limited by its tires.. I boltin a set of mut lites and proceded to climb a MUD hill that I could not walk up.. With 2 people aboard.. NO problem at all. I also retunely tow a 3500 trailer up a hill wit 2 aboard.. Try that with a mule.. Also the hydrostatic trans is a dream going down hill with a load.. The wet brakes will last the life of the vehicle..

Brakes??? Oh yea, that's that other pedal. With the speed control assemblies we have, I never need the brake. Steep hills or flat ground. I know mine should last forever.

While i haven't driven the mule with a diesel i did drive a mule 610. i drove the thing and found it to be a GUTLESS overpriced piece of metal.
I told the salesman it drove and rode like it was already wore out!
I would no doubt buy a RTV over the mule anyday!
now i am looking at a rhino while i haven't driven one i have seen much more favorable stuff on it than a mule.
I think kawasaki had better rethink it's product if it going to stay in the utility line!

Thanks for the welcome. It took me awhile to find this place. I like it.
I dont know what to do about the 9000 foot issue. I think I am going to lose some power but I dont know how much. I think if I open up the air flow I can minimize it.

flyingn,
Is that a blue RTV?? If so can you post a picture?
You are right about tires. They make a big difference in anything you drive
I have used tracks for most of the winter. Those can pull. I am back to stock tires right now and next week I am going ice fishing for the week so I am going to put on my Essex 27" 589's. There is not enough snow for tracks right now in my area so the 589's should be just fine. I think everyone thats looking at a Mule should drive and buy a RTV. I cannot say enough good stuff about the Kubota. They are great.

Well this has certainly turned out to be a very Positive RTV900 Thread ( glad it has finely evolved as I was becoming a one-man band banging my drum on other sites!!)
THE 9000' ALTITUDE QUANDARY ---I'm afraid any normally aspirated engine of any stripe or color will suffer greatly unless you own one of these!
Yours truly (left seat at 14'000')

Do you have that chopper to haul your RTV around? Now that would be fun.'
I think you are right. I am going to go to Wyoming with my RTv and my Tatou tracks. I guess I will take it easy and have as much fun as I can.

LOL, hardly only Uncle Sugar can afford that big boy!!
Did have the pleasure of commanding two units (18 each) of this heavy lifter, still think it is the most amazing complicated machine yet built by man!!
