Default looking to buy a sise by side quad

kinda in the mood to buy a side by side quad,i've looked at them all, i'm leaning toward the polaris but i've heard they are brutal to work on, i'm a real big fan of brp but the price tag,any help would really be appreciated.my old 1995 timberwolf is still going strong so i would like a good bike that is just as dependable or better

You didn't mention whether your were considering a Ranger or RZR. They are quite different machines.

I never owned a Polaris; but have used a Ranger for a short time, as a demo. Also I never owned a RZR either.

The Ranger was a strong machine, very well built; but also I think heavier.

I settled on a Yamaha Rhino: Yes they all have flaws and certain things better than the rest.

The Yamaha was cheaper, lighter (for what I do) and the aftermarket has more items. The Rhino suits me better.

I would suggest take a test ride on all of the available models in your area, and also look at the service departments.

Many people can't adjust moving from a Quad to a Side X Side. They are not the same animal.
