Arctic cat Prowler vs. yamaha rino


kooba

Recommended Posts

I would compare like this......

Prowler vs. Ranger

Rhino vs. Teryx

If going with the smaller models, I would choose the Rhino, just because it is lighter and smaller compared to the Prowler.

isnt a teryx wider and longer than the prowler and the rhino.

i would keep the ranger out of the equation unless it is for work.

What is your opinion on the following:

Prowler vs. Rhino

Rhino vs. Teryx

If going with the smaller models, would you choose the Rhino, just because it is lighter and smaller compared to the Prowler?

Well since this post is so old.

 

You may want to compare the

Arctic Cat Stampede to the Yamaha Wolverine since the Rhino is not being made any more after 2013. 

And since Textron bought out Arctic Cat and a lot of things seem up in the air and which may be rebranded as Tracker.

You may just want to go with a Polaris Ranger since chances are Textron's not going anywhere and you can still get parts and service in the future! Good Luck!  ?

I owned one of the original Wolverines. That was a fun quad with 4wd and light weight. 
 

interesting side fact- Textron is the same company that bought Polaris in the late 70’s or so when the industry went sideways and they held the brand for some time. Now they buy Arctic Cat. Interesting stuff. 
 

personally I feel that BPS makes the cream of the crop products in the industry.

I have a wolverine 2019 X2, its a 850 twin Just a blast to drive. I am 79 yoa so I am not really a speedster but it is trouble free so far. My wife likes driving it too . Its a bit smaller machine than a Ranger or the Yamaha Viking but it sure is easy to turn around on a trail and yet it hold 600lbs in the dump box and tows 2000 lbs.

That 850 is not a slouch of a motor and I'm sure that thing moves along.  Keep riding until the kids or cops take the keys away, I say! ?

    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
    • Sketti...  not out of a jar either!
    • Lol yeah I watched that
