Have you looked at the Kubota RTV1140?

I have looked at the RTV1140's but it is not exactly what we are looking for. I love my Kubota Eqpt but their utility vehicles are a little to work oriented for me. I still want a little sport in there. I was also thinking about getting a second 2 seater, Wife and daughter could take the Rhino and maybe a rzr or something for me and the boy, then again that leads me right back to a fast trip to the hospital....

I put a deposit on a Honda Pioneer on Monday. Will be getting it in two weeks. I like the "transformer" option of 4 seats in a nimble sized UTV. I will post a report after driving mine.

Foggy,
If I were going to buy a UTV right now, I think I'd also go with the Pioneer.
I'm not in the market for a UTV, but they are very interesting to me and I'm looking forward to what you think of it after getting a few miles under your belt.

Congrats!

How much are these vehicles running in price if you don't mind sharing.

Does the Pioneer have an unlocking rear diff?

There is no rear rear differential on the Pioneer from what I have found.
RideApart Review: Honda Pioneer 700-4 | RideApart

The mid-mounted engine drives the rear wheels through a non-differential rear end in default, Two-Wheel Drive mode, directing power to the front in 4WD or locking the front differential when “4WD Diff Lock” is selected. There’s no low-range transfer case or hill descent control, but the low gearing and sensitive brakes are able to walk you down steep hills in complete confidence.

I'm also interested in "real world" pricing. It looks like around 1k off MSRP isn't uncommon from some quick google searching. The 4 person MSRP is $11,700

Why did you post this! You got me looking into side by sides again!

I had a complete obsession with the Polaris RZR when they first came out a few years ago, almost bought one. I didn't like how small the bed was in them though. I wanted a 4 seater but didn't like how big they are. The Pioneer seems like it might just be about perfect.

I'm gonna take a "look" at the dealership next week and see if they have any on the floor.

I'm out then. Any work type UTV should have the unlocking differential feature. Makes steering much easier, saves the tires, doesn't leave black marks on the road, and doesn't tear your grass up. Plus it's much easier on the trails.
