Status: offline 		Update here guys.  Well....we went and test drove a bunch of machines.  And then....we test drove a Yamaha Rhino.  Absolutely no comparison in overall ride comfort to any atv out there.  These side-by-sides, are unbelievably comfortable to ride in!  On top of that, they have the bucket out back to haul stuff around and can ride 2 very comfortably.  I can't say enough good about these things.

We did get the 450 rather than the 700FI, which I'm sure will be unpopular around here.  But we got a very nice deal.  It is a very capable little machine.  Good on gas and with the low range, can tug anything nicely.

BTW, of all the ATV's I rode, I think its a toss up between the Grizzly and the Polaris for the most comfort.

Status: offline 		I would say go with the kingquad 450.  it rides smoother than a Grizz, but not quite as plush as the popo, and not quite as top heavy as the rest.
