[QUOTE="TacomaJD, post: 619851, member: 1780"] Mine ain't a rzr, but will follow most rzr's unless yer hill shooting...and I wouldn't hill shoot even if I had a rzr. Lol It's a completely different kind of riding. Even with my Ranger lifted on 30's, the small tire size and wheel base/width compared to a buggy does just what you think it would, makes trails that you once viewed as easy, hard now. I have been to Choccolocco several times and tried to follow my crawler buddies and get lost on the trails because there are so many long rough rock garden type trails there that has no quick bypass without going a long way around and meeting on the other side. Parks like Morris Mtn, Hawk Pride, and others similar, it wouldn't be as difficult to stay together with buggies. Now, there is a place local that is a wildlife management area and I ride there with all my buddies that have rangers and rzr's and some 4wheelers, and we have a damn blast. It's like scaled down offroad park that fits a sxs. There is super hard crawling stuff that I have busted my plastic rockers up on, long easy trails to drive fast on, several rocky creek beds either dry or full of water. And I absolutely love that place....but I'm not riding with crawlers. All in all, it's more fun on a sxs when you are running with other sxs's, so that you can all stay together and hit the same stuff. But at certain parks, you can still roll with the buggies too and follow them around. I miss my crawler sometimes but I don't miss the expenses, plus I was kinda getting burnt out on it at the time. I have enjoyed the **** out of my Ranger. Once I spent the initial $3k on suspension, windshield, roof, wheels, tires, etc. I was done with it. I haven't spent a dime on it in 6 months. All I've done is put gas in it and change the oil once. Super low maintenance unless you drive like a moron and tear it up all the time. That part I love. Ride it, wash it, park it, repeat.

Ready to go pretty much out of the box. They are fun for sure, sounds like you would get more enjoyment out of one since you aren't wheeling your full size rig much anymore. [/QUOTE]
