I like the Kawasaki Mule Pro FXT for it’s price, quietness, ride, and functionality, but it lacks power & I don’t know just how well it would do off the beaten path.
I also like the TeryX4, it has a decent price and good ride, but the engine is quite loud since it is in the front & might create some really hot temps too in the cab? Not sure on that one though. Also doesn’t have a dump bed which is something I’m really looking forward to using.
The Polaris General is about the only Polaris I really looked at in this category, I drove a 2 seater to get an idea, and the Engine Breaking System was a bit jumpy at low/creeping speeds. Kind of a turnoff, but the machine rode great. Cost is a bit up there though.
I drove the Can-Am Commander Max XT, and I enjoyed the ride and power. Love the bed, and dumping function. The ride in the back wasn’t the greatest for the kids, but meh,they are kids, they’ll be ok. No doors was kind of a downer, and the fact that to access the belts/etc… I would have to take out the seat and console it looked like, makes me think fixing a problem on the trails would be a huge pain.
Even though the opinions on these forums may swing to the Can-Am side, I’m still curious. Pro’s and Con’s for you on the Commander or other machine if you own or have owned one. Thanks in advance, and I look forward to being a member.
