Im looking to get a side by side, but have no clue what to get. I seriously love the new wildcat, but im not a big fan of artic cat products. I have heard great things about the rzr but what model would work for me. I love can am products, but do not like the commander due to its size and weight. Has anyone heard about a possible sport model coming out from can am?

I ride hard, love racing and ripping around in the mud, sand, and ice. What would you guys drop 20g on? Kinda leaning to the proven rzr, but really dig the suspension on the wildcat.

If i got a rzr, should i go with the 900?

My buddy swore by his Rhino, until he drove his friends Can-Am. He can't justify the extra expense to upgrade(?) for as often as he gets out.

The 900 is at the top of the league right now
not if you're waiting for parts. axles, diffs, and motors seems to be weak points. when they run they kick ass though, by far the quickest and sportiest machine out there. just typical polaris reliability if you're pushing it hard.

my bud has had all of the above break on his in the first month. he's stoked he's getting a new motor though....

I'll be getting the Can Am soon, and I'm not easy on stuff. I will definitely post up any grief I have with it so don't get too worked up yet rzrgade :D

Commander is pretty awesome only bad thing is we peeled the skid plate back under it but other than that it's pretty tough. We bag it pretty hard and it holds up

wondering why no one has mentioned a Teryx? I am also in the market for a side by side and have been doing some light research and more or less decided that the Teryx would be best option for me.....
