[On a IRS the ground clearance goes out the window when you have it loaded down with hogs, dogs, etc.

I sure like the ride of an IRS buggy, but when it's time to "work" I'll take a straight axles anyday.

I know what you mean.  I have my shocks cranked up and it is rough if its not loaded.  If I am going riding I will turn them back down before hand.     rides good and maintain ground clearance if you turn your coils up.

I looked hard at those John Deere xuv's super nice and they have a diesel model too. Lots of space in the back bed.

I guess I got lucky with my ranger, it's an 05 and no problems. I don't pamper it at all. if you hunt out here in west Texas the speed comes in handy

Been real happy with my Prowler.  I have had it a little over 15 months.  It pulls well and is pretty quick when I need it to be.

I hunt out of a Ranger and it has never let me down! It's plenty stout! The other night I got stuck in my pickup (3/4 ton ford power stroke) we unloaded the Ranger hooked on to the truck and pulled it out without any trouble at all!

I have a rhino and I think it's too loud, because of where the breather is I think. But it is definately the toughest utv I have been around and will climb anything you have the balls enough to climb!!

They use to be a Mule base with John Deere plastic. Have heard good things also.

I don't know about tx or anywhere else but here in arkansas we can't get where we need to go on a side by side. Don't get my wrong I would love to have one and that one boss hogg posted is nice. This what I use. I carry all my gear (cut kit, tracker, ropes, drinks, etc) with up to 5 dogs a wife and a 3 yr old boy and haul hogs out on the front. Never misses a lick and I have yet to find a thicket it won't tackle. Although those tires do have some plugs Tongue

I use a Bristers Chuck Wagon, powered by Honda.  It's not fast, but it beats walking.  I have the 2wd version with a locking differential, hardly ever have an issue traversing all terrain.  Its main advantage is the low price.  Made in LA, solidly built  But rough riding and loud.

Marines I see as two breeds, Rottweilers or Dobermans, because Marines come in two varieties, big and mean, or skinny and mean. They're aggressive on the attack and tenacious on defense. They've got really short hair and they always go for the throat.

As far as speed and handling I'd say can-am I had the outlander 800 and never had any probs until it drounded out crossing a pond some snorkels and a monkey bar exhaust fixed that. Pulling power hands down artic cats have it we hooked a brute force 750 to the artic cat 500 both with 29.5 outlaws and the artic cat pulled the brute force around the yard like a toy. Either way both are great atvs ARTIC CAT also makes a nice UTV! Goodluck!

I have the John Deere 825. It has done fine has also pulled a 3/4 ton out a ditch. It runs bout 45 and will pull great. I believe it has the bigges bed. The factory tires got me stuck cause they look good but don't clean out anything at all. I also got high centered in a competition hunt yesterday. Has for the power I don't think u can beat it but if u gonna be in bad swamp or wet fields I would get new tires or a rhino. JMO
