Those RZR's are awesome! If I was gonna get a UTV, I think that would be the one I'd get. Very sweet and I am very jealous!

Neat toy. When you get ready to launch it, give me a call. Tom and I will come watch.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Your going to love that bad boy. Is it a 09 or 2010 model? If it did NOT come with leg minders, PLEASE make that priority #1 before you start having fun on the trails ….it’s a very inexpensive safety item. Some good information can be found at http://www.prcforum.com/

Neat toy. When you get ready to launch it, give me a call. Tom and I will come watch. Dave did you mean lunch it? That is more my speed. You must really have to give it hack to get air. I was going over 3ft terraces that are less than 20 ft apart at 40 mph and this thing was so smooth it was amazing. Our Ice chest in the bed didn't even move. Jim it is actually a 2008 model. That is the main reason I we went ahead and pulled the trigger on this deal. It was the last 08 model and they were discounted 1500$ off the price of a 2009. I wanted camo but I settle for red. I couldn't justify paying 1000$ more. What do you mean by leg menders? it has the safety nets to keep your legs inside if that is what you are referring too. I might fab my on doors for it also. We looked at the bigger ranger but this little machine actually has more leg room. I'm a very large fellow and I fit in this thing nicely. That is what sold me. I plan to add a snap on 36 x 48 bed to give it more utility use. We have big plans to take this to the mountains every summer another reason I choice this model. I need room to carry our two kids (cow dogs) Daisy & Ranger. That is also a reason for the larger add on bed. I have it in the planning stages I'll share when fab work gets started.

You know I'll bet that if someone stood on the very back cargo rack, that you could perform a sustained wheel stand.
I'll bet TomG would do it.

Jeff I'm afraid if I was driving Tom would need to detonate that alarm clock under the front axle to achieve that feat.

I can picture Tom in the middle of the pond with JHAP egging him on. My eyes were leaking ROFLOL when I watched the youtube video. The "Watch This" mentality always amazes me!

Some friends of ours have a big piece of riverside property that we go 4 wheeling on a couple times a year. They have a full size Polaris side by side and their identical twin girls share a mini Razor (90cc?) that they follow them through the trails with. Cutest thing you ever saw.
Does the name Pavlov ring a bell?

The new rack has worked out great for the daily farm chores. One of the best benefits I have discovered thus far is it is a great place to put the seats when you need to check fluid levels or do scheduled maintenance. Another thing I have discovered about the RZR is it makes for an awesome mobile hunting blind. I tie leave camo panels around the cab and over the nose of the machine. The setting postion and roll bar are perfect for getting off a clean shot. You also have a nice cup holder for your ice cold beer.

Rocky,either get that JUNK off the ice-chest rack or build another one on the front.By the way,the beer is easier to reach on a front rack when your driving.

One of the best benefits I have discovered thus far is it is a great place to put the seats when you need to check fluid levels or do scheduled maintenance. Last trip up to the ranch I decided to check the oil in the Polaris. So I craw underneath the Ranger and reach up and unscrew the cap from the top of the oil fill and am commenting to Ricki (who was standing next to the Polaris) on how I hate checking the oil in the dam thing and what engineering idiot would design the rig such that you would have to lie on your back and crawl in the dirt to check the oil. She then pulls the seat off and looks down through the hole at me lying in the dirt and says "Why don't you just check it from up here?" It was a D'OH moment.

Maybe you should let her check the oil from now on,since SHE doesnt have to get under it to do it.
