If you are looking for something sporty and performance I would take the RZR. The Rhino has a bigger cargo box for hauling. I think they are both good machines, but I would go for the RZR, and I think they look nicer too.

Rhino all the way! Nothing is on par with the durability of the rhino. Yes out of the box the box the rzr is faster, but at the end of the day its still just a polaris:ermm:

Never driven a rhino, but cant speak more highly of my rzr. I was a little leary since after all it is a Polaris, but I beat the crap out of it and havent had a single issue. You can drive it aggresively and it will take it, or you can putt around on it, as i let my 10 year old neighbor do. very nice machine I am impressed.

from whsat ive seen any sort of recreational riding or sport riding get the rzr, working the rhino is great, like jrspawn said they last forever, well built, my buddy pulled a neighbors stuck tractor out with his

Thanx for the input guys,I had a 04 500 polaris quad which had lots of mechanical issues even with gentle use and low mileage,so a bit hesitant to buy the rzr........

For quality, you can't beat the Rhino. For something you will be using for some work/hauling stuff, and also want to go riding on the trails, the Rhino is a lot of fun. It's also very tough and can go just about anywhere - better ground clearance than the RZR, too.

If you plan to ride in public riding places, check the width requirements. I thought the Rhino was too wide for most trail systems?
