I rode on a 2-bench seated kawasaki mule the other day...and i was very impressed. We had 3 people on rear seat and two up front...that is a lot of weight. We were following a rhino with 2 people on it...we kept up pretty well. I think torch is right though...in my experience the rhino is probably the toughest of the bunch when it comes to extreme conditions, but they all go pretty good.

My Rhine isn't cold natured at all. A lot better than my honda 4-wheeler.
Why is my mouth so dry this morning, when I drank so much last night?

I own a 700xp and love it but i think the best response is from a guy who has owned both. Ask Littlediesel. He sold the Rhino and bought a Ranger. They both have advantages.

I hear honda is in the process, as always two steps behind but it will be two steps ahead when it arrives. Both of these machines are good machines. The ranger does weigh more and doesn't have the top end the Rhino does. The ranger is geared a little more for work than play, where as the Rhino is sporty= a little smaller. I would say the Ranger hauls more shat and the Rhino will get you there faster.
This topic is like saying Ford or Chevy? You gone prefer one over the other and the next guy is opposite of you on the topic, but my Chevy is tuffer than your ford any day!
