Kubota RTV900
 

Anybody have one of these utility vehicles? Or a diesel kawasaki mule? Our lake house sits atop a hill that you must go down and then through a trail in the woods to get to the dock. Several people have golf carts, but they struggle when hauling people and gas tanks. I am looking for utility vehicle that wont suck so much.

uncle has a rhino...it is quite nice and fast, but i would like a little more hauling/pulling power. I am a big fan of diesel power anyway.

My buddy has a brand new kubota RTV. It is very nice.... but it is more like a tractor..... whereas the rhino is more like a 4 wheeler. Just depends on what you'll use it for. I would think that the kubota would last much longer and be more suitable for farm work, but you probably wouldn't have much fun on a trail with it.

thanks cav. I have to haul people and cargo from the cabin to the dock daily, and launch a seadoo every weekend. It is too far to walk, steep hills, and the road turns into pee gravel trail that winds through the woods. I really cannot foresee any "play" time, only a little cruise now and then. Just seems like a diesel and hydrostat drive will hit the spot.

I have 1 for the lake house moving gas to dock and other junk it is very powerful will climb almost anything I also had a mule blew it up and got the kubota kubota also has power steering mule does not much nicer than mule by the way kawasaki did not warranty it. 0nly had 120 miles on it

beautiful...that is the response i am looking for. we have a serious hill to climb just in our drive way. I need some real grunt. And the kubota has a hydrostat trans. None of that ***** CVT that slips when it is really used hard.

I import mini trucks, In my opinion miles ahead of a rhino kubota etc. They can tow more carry, have high/low ratio 4WD and have a full cab, They are 10ft long and 5'2 wide we sell lots of them to farmers and hunters, easy to fit a hitch too, and ATV wheels bolt straight on, an excellent all round truck, if you need any more info just let me know.

I've got a friend with the Kubota. Great little work horse. He uses it around his marina. pulls boats fine.

Re: Kubota RTV900
 

waterboy, looks interesting. if i read correctly it tows just as much as the kubota and is rated to haul 500lbs less total weight than the RTV. Nitpicking those numbers is less of a worry to me as my real concern is off road ability. I will need low range, ground clearance, and locking diffs to access the dock trail in some circumstances. Still a neat little truck
