My husband can't seem to make up his mind on what type of sxs he should get the Rhino 700 4x4 or the Polaris Rzr 800.We're planning to do some heavy trail riding in Pa. now the trails in Pa. are very rocky,a little bit muddy and steep hill climbing.What's your opinion?:confused:

I'm would have to say the polaris rzr. Surprise! but really I like this sxs and not just because I ride a polaris now. One day while I was at my dealer They had one outside and let me take it around the lot. First of all the stock rzr has an amazing sound that will excite most gear heads right away. When I stepped on her she threw me right back in the seat. Gets up to speed so fast. I really enjoyed it. From what I could gather in the parking lot she got a pretty low center of gravity where, in my opinion, the rhino looks a bit more top heavy. Just my opinion, never drove/ridden one.

We were called down to PA. to test drive both the RZR and the Rhino by a few dealers that we made friends with while I was racing.We got down there last weekend and we test drove both.The RZR is amazing on flat ground and keeps it's speed tight while going up hill but there were times I thought we were loose control and roll over.Going down hill also scared me because it lost traction many times and we were doing maybe 20-30 miles per hour the most.The Rhino was also even more amazing and went through every obstacle with no problem.The only thing is that you can't do any abrupt turns cause you can tip over easily cause your right it is top heavy but we didn't get stuck not once with the Rhino.All in all we chose to buy the Rhino.
