Anyone have any experience with one? I know of an outfitter in Northern BC who uses UTV's extensively and has tried them all. His comments were that the John Deere was the toughest and most dependable of them all but was lacking in power. This spring he was trying out the new Artic Cat but never made it to camp as he tore the rear diff out. We were all on RSRs and one ranger and his comment to us was "you guys only come in here once a year.I do this trail every week.Those polarisis dont last'.

They look like a good rig to me,, the new one looks sportier and has 65hp or maybe 85? at any rate they look like a good unit and I have no trouble believing they are more durable than a RZR which break down on the regular...

Did some reading on them. Turns out they don't take to water well at all. Water through the trans dipstick, airbox is a joke as is the cvt case. Better stick with the gayzr's commanders and rhino's.
Sh#ty they look cool tho...lol
