Does this model bog down on hills like the old 900? Curious to find out because our old 900 was a tank.. just a shame with the bogging down...

Never had much to do with these things, they look quite good but must be expensive. What do you guys do with them that you cant use a pick up?
Is it just to travel on wet ground?

Tried a new polaris ranger diesel last week ...very impressed. Quite quick too. Think it would almost outrun cattle.

We got it 5th of March and have done 350hrs and 3250 miles on it all good so far only the tyres were bald after 100hrs I told dealer and have to leave it to him for service but couldn’t get time yet hopefully they will put tyres on it. It has been very reliable couldn’t see myself going back to a Polaris again only downside is 27mph max speed and a bit sluggish on hills

New type? I had 1 on demo, put 40 litres in it, did 50mile and used less than 1/4 tank, thought I had it for the week but it left this morning. Very impressed with it!

Did you go for a heater? It’s £800 for the heater, that’s the only debacle so far

Really? With the 855's the homologated were 40k and modified to 50k the non homologated were 50k as standard.

Does the kubota climb betterthan the old 900 ours always just about made it to the top before bogging down? now got a Ranger with the engine braking and the kubota engine. The drive reminds me of the hydrostatic of the kubota.. normally we wouldn't touch Polaris but with these new changes we thought we gave it a go
