Ranger XP vs. Rhino 660 Video (produced by Yamaha)

   / Ranger XP vs. Rhino 660 Video (produced by Yamaha) #12  
i have owned two rhinos and have been happy with both of them. i recently sold my 06 rhino and purchased a ranger 700 xp delivery has been backed up until next tuesday.wanted fuel injection and the ranger seems to be harder to get on two wheels. rhinos will get on two wheels without really trying. anyway i am trying to get my rtv 1100 back from my 13 year old daughter.

my buddy jst bought a 450 rhino and his skid plates are a joke they are plastic. the undermeath of the rhino is plastic too. infact if you want any protection at all you have to order metal or aluminum after market skid plates. his friend with the 660 had a tree stump come through the driverside floorboard . from what i seen at the polaris dealer the rangers are the same way???? it looks like if you want fun have to give up some safety. but the rhino's are fun so are the rangers. now the ranger quating in the video i can vouch for that i seen a few of them with 2- 120 quart ice chest in the bed and they was quating to the ground now they was hauling the load and it sounded like they was doing it with ease too but i really didin't like the way they quated i seen the rhino's quat too.from what i see in the guys that ride around here the ranger would take the rhino's in everything but trail riding and the only way i think the rhino would be better on the trails is it's smaller. as for as fit and finish the rhino is better i didn't care for the ranger's in that part they looked alittle cheap i felt like when i lifted the hood it was goona break off plus it was kinda hard to get dack in place.i went and looked at the rangers 4 times i even filled out the paper work and all i had to do was sign on the line and take it home but i just couldn't do it not when you put it next to a john deere .now i still would like to have a ranger one day and i might but i would not get rid of my hpx to get one.

Tommy, you have no idea how much I wish John Deere would put a bench seat in the XUV. At least the option to choose between the two.

i too would like a bench seat.the rhino seat are nice and the hpx seats are nice too but i think they should give a choice . now a nice bench seat in the hpx and xuv would be a great thing to have. if you look at that video i really didn't see them guys sliding anywheres as long as you got your seat belts on your good to go. i wonder how hard it would be to retro-fit a bech seat to the gators?

I am not sure but isn't the shifter in between the seats on the XUV?

I agree, those guys were not sliding around much but they were going thru the rough areas fast so they guys were rocking back and forth making it look like a rough ride:rolleyes:

That was so exaggerated. Then you see the same guys in the rhino holding there heads so still.
Why were they wearing white? They want us to think they are from NASA? :D

i don't know what they was wearing white for?maybe it was for a dust getting sucked up into the cab comparison part of the video that they didn't show and they wanted to see how dusty a white suit can get.

I think this is not a fare comparison. If you want to compare the Rhino to a Polaris, it should be compared to the RZR. And man thats a good agrument which is better
