Thought you guys might like to see some pics from a trip I went on Sat. It is a back road up to an old mining town called Crown King. You start at 1900ft and go to 6000ft in about 30miles. Nice scenery. A lot of mines in the area. You go from desert to pine tress and snow. Takes about 3 hours as it is pretty rugged terrain. We had 3 flats from jagged rocks. Didn't get any pics of the deep stuff, since we were having too much fun and forgot about the cameras. All the snow pics are when we first got into it. There is one difficult spot that Jeeps with lockers were having problems getting over. One of them broke a tie rod and it took out his brake line. All four of the Rhinos went over it without a hitch. It normally isn't that bad, but from all the cold weather the rocks had froze over and caused a major slick face.

Every time I see these Rhinos I keep thinking how much I want one. Laughing Those things look awesome. Real nice scenery it looks like a great riding area.

I am sure you guys have seen the RZR thread. The RZR is definitely smaller than the Rhino. The Rhino fits in the back of my truck though Shocked Plus you can haul kids in the back. I have actually had 4 adults in it, but it weighs down the springs in the back. I have also had two small kids in back without any ill effects.

I made them as well as the cage. The stock cage is still there and I added on to it in the back and the light bar. I actually did add on cages for the green and yellow Rhino's in the pics as well.
