I have a Kawasaki Mule that is a good work horse.I now want something a little faster.Not a RZR or Teryx.Maybe a Ranger,Rhino or even something with diesel.What is reliable and easy to maintain????thanks ahead for your comments,OB

I'd go with the Honda one. I cant remember the name of it. Honda ATVs have a well deserved reputation for dependability.

I looked at the Honda.I liked everything about it except the box on back is so small ,one deer would fill it.

Well dang!! You could always add one of those carries that go in the reciever hitch. Of course they're kinda small too.

I belong to the Ted Nugent school of wack em and stack em.I need a big bed to stack em!!!!!!

I hear ya man!!

know several people who have been having good luck with Polaris.

Can-Am has added ATVs to their lineup.

I have had a Ranger since 2007. I am not easy on my machine by any means, and it has IMHO stood up quite well with a new belt @120 hours the only piece worse for wear. It is lifted with 27's titan 589s with a cab. It does not bog down the suspension at all and still handles quite well. They are also all wheel drive. E-lockers front and rear, so you have to try to get stuck. I have friend who had rhino's... they now all have Rangers. my .02

I've got an '09 Ranger Crew that has quite a few goodies on it and has been pretty flawless. Only have about 250 hours on it but it's been worked hard and driven harder and has really impressed me. I'm in the Hill Country and have loaded the bed to overflow with rocks with no probs as well as having towed a 2000# trailer around the ranch loaded with deer and/or elk...again no problems.

My buddy bought an '11 and it is night and day different....much more power, better steering (non ps) and the suspension is incredible (didn't think anything could be better than mine but there's no comparison!).
I'm going to run mine for another year then trade up and will definitely get the power steering option.

My neighbor has a Mule Crew and although it is tough as nails, it rides like a tank and is slow as molasses. Really no comparison between the two!

BTW, I just got a RZR 4 and although it ain't worth a crap for doing work it is about as much fun as you can have with your pants on!!! 60+ mph down the ranch roads isn't real wise but it sure puts a smile on my flappin' lips!!

I've had 2 120lb hogs and 2 medium sized does on the bed of my Honda Big Red. Thats what tie-downs are for. No problem hauling the weight at all, in fact the 2012's have an 1100 lb bed load rating.

I went hunting at a ranch in Michigan a few years ago and they had a Kubota. Don't know the model but it was comfortable and went everywhere!

Has anyone looked at the Arctic Cat?
