Bringing back an old thread here but I got to test drive a 2008 Polaris Ranger RZR this weekend at the local grass drags and it is the most fun I have had since I last rode my 1985 Honda Odyssey. 
It goes a top speed of 55mph with High and Low range. It's two wheel drive with a limited slip rear and with the push of a button it becomes AWD and is unstoppable. They had piles of rocks, tires, RR ties, etc to climb and neither was a challenge. The rear bed is really only useful for small storage but it is far more recreational than work. I really like the seats and full steering wheel with a simple two pedal gas/brake also.
The MSRP is just over $10k which seems a little steep but when the second year of production (2009 model) becomes available, I will be all over it. Maybe even a used 2008 this spring if there are some available.
What a machine!
