Is it a 50"? How's that parking brake thing going to work out for you? _________________ "A Proud Member of the YP '09, Magruder '10, Missed it '11, YP '12", half"The Loop '13", Injured reserve for '14, and the "No Quit '15 Loop Ride", The Wallace,St. Maries,Avery, Cascade, Hang Out 2016, The Mackay Mechanical Misery Tour 2017. |

Your Rhino has an e-brake, last I knew, the Popo doesn't. Gonna' suck to stop on a hill, cause if you use that park position in the tranny, you have to push it back a little to get it to release. Just a little nuance. This is getting costly around here trying to keep up with the Jones's. _________________ "A Proud Member of the YP '09, Magruder '10, Missed it '11, YP '12", half"The Loop '13", Injured reserve for '14, and the "No Quit '15 Loop Ride", The Wallace,St. Maries,Avery, Cascade, Hang Out 2016, The Mackay Mechanical Misery Tour 2017. |

several aftermarket fixes for that brake problem. I went with a hydraulic brake lock mounted between the front seats. Jim has his handy piece of PVC pipe |

And my PVC pipe works fine and best of all it didn't cost me anything something I had left over from another project _________________ Jim K.

Hmmmmm, 20,000$ for a ride, and you use pvc pipe so it doesn't roll off the mountain. Gotta love a PoPo _________________ "A Proud Member of the YP '09, Magruder '10, Missed it '11, YP '12", half"The Loop '13", Injured reserve for '14, and the "No Quit '15 Loop Ride", The Wallace,St. Maries,Avery, Cascade, Hang Out 2016, The Mackay Mechanical Misery Tour 2017. |

You don't know how bad I hate to say this but I drove a Rhino a couple of weeks ago and you couldn't pay me to go back to one. I'm quite spoiled by my PoPo. Not to say the Rhino doesn't have its place, I could use one around the place for a to do chores. Of coarse I could use a Mule for that. oh thats right those are a Kawi. _________________ Jim K.

Okay enough of the Ford vs Chevy crap. They all have good points, and they all have bad, in a perfect world where I was rich I would own one of each, the new Yamaha Viking and the new Polaris XP 1000, and yes even the new Kawasaki Teryx . This thread was started with Skip showing us pics of his new ride, and I hope he likes it, and is proud of it, and I hope it works out for him as good as the Rhinos did. Sorry Skip! |

Finally put the Rhino on the market. First day I sold it for $8500 with original Warn 3000# winch.
I put that down on the Can Am. The rest on a 5 yr contract or will pay off if/when the RZR sells.-
2008 Rhino with 12,000+ miles sold for $8500 and the best offer for
2014 RZR 800 EPS 50" with <700 miles has been $7500 w/out winch
at that price I'll keep the POS
