Title: Honda comparison questions
Post by: wjftsf on November 07, 2006, 09:59:53 AM
Im looking at  two 2006 Honda Fourtrax 4x4 Ranchers. These are both new and would be shipped to me by a dealer (I would only buy one or the other).  One is the ES (electric shifting) TRX350FE  and the other is the TRX350FM- 5 spd W/reverse. I'm looking for opinions on those two models and what, if any, are the problems with the electric shifting? Thanks

we have a 05 es and a 05 manual. dont get the es. get the manual. much better. i think it even has a lil more power too. we have never had a problem with the es but i just dont like it.

 Is that Electric Shifting pretty much like an Automatic or is it just easier to shift. I going to a dealer to drive one tomorrow but didnt want to waste my time if they were no good.

We are a group of 3 Ranchers Es and 1 Rancher AT and we don't have any problems at all, if anything I love the AT is great the fact that you can switch from Auto to Electric Shift and 4x4 to 4x2. But hey.. that's me...  good luck
