It depends on how you are going to use it. Dune, Hunt, Run Washes, and so on. Each brand has distinct advantages. But no matter what, buy whatever the hell you like, and screw all the nay-sayers. Get a side-x-side and drive the crap out of it.
BTW...... Welcome to the dysfunctional family we call Planet Side X Side!

Welcome To The Site. Yes We Are Dysfunctional, But We Are Fun & Informational. It Is Like This You Either Like Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Toyota, Nissan Or Honda. It Is A Preference Thing. If You Want To Hunt, Farm Or Do Hard Work Get A Ranger, Mule Or John Deere. These Vehicles Also Are Excellent For Hauling Your Family & You Can Do A Lot Of Fun Things With Them If You Want To Play More & Go Faster Get A Rhino, Tyrex Or Prowler. You Can Also Do Farm Work, Hunt & Haul Stuff With These Sidexsides, But They Are Meant More For Sporty Type Events, Like Duning Or Ridge Running & Yes Racing. If You Want To Be Able To Go On ATV Trails & Be The Fastest Thing Out There Get A RZR (Ask Cisco Kid). Me I Like Fords & Rhinos. I Think A 2008 Sport Edition 700 Rhino Would Be Perfect. It Has Better Shocks & Other Extras. Just My Preference. But Like They Say Get A Sidexside, Any Sidexside & Have The Best Times Of Your Life. It Will Become A Lifestyle For You. Just My 2 Cents.
