Fisherman Dan, I have a 3010 Mule as well as a new trans mule. Went quail hunting last week and another guy brought his Polaris Ranger. Only difference is The ranger is a lot faster. Nobody needs to go any faster than a mule(apprx 24mph) if he has any brains at all. I have never had any problems with the Kawasaki mule and have owned 4 of them since 1998. Just my opinion. Cody
