ohh, doing it a little different.  Realty has sky rocketed, when my mom and dad bought our house when it was new back in the late 70's they got it for 50k, now its up to 250k only because its waterfront (lake).  Its nuts but a good business to get into.   Maybe I will try my hand at realty when I graduate which will be in 09.  And dont worry, if I even hear people I dont know talking about moving to Ft. Myers I will send them to you

I would appreciate that! You have to be 18 to get your real estate liscense, look me up when your ready and I will show you what you have to do. It is a very very tuff business, but can also be very rewarding!

No problem, how is it tuff?  Finding people to buy the homes?

[r6realtor]

well there is not that many people out there that can afford a house that expensive for starters, so if I don't sell I DON"T MAKE MONEY, no hourly rate no paychecks unless I sell! second there are so many houses for sale right now that people are looking else were besides just my development. Plus you are dealing with one of the biggest financial decisions of a persons life, so I feel you must do everything perfectly make the experience go as smooth as possible, This is Very stressfull

I see what you are saying, would be hard because of the competition.  And that sucks you get paid by the house, maybe I wont get into that business

What is the top speed you have had your Rhino up to? I am looking at getting one, and have heard several different speeds.

[AmericanRobster]

Nice Rhino!

havent had it up to top speed yet, still breakin her in!

[The Quad FaJa]

other then the motor...are there any other differances to the 660 rhino?

[AmericanRobster]

The gearing is different too. The 450 has lower gearing so you can run the BIGGER TIRES! Thats from what I was reading..

[Young Gun]

yeah, thats the main difference.  You can always lower the gearing for the 660 and have more powA!

18% lower gearing is not gonna make up for the 47% larger engine the 660 has.

Damn good point! but the extra money for the 660, I personally feel and this is just my opinion is not worth it, Like I said I certainly could have gone with the 660 but after much research I decided the 450 was fine and it really is,  I pushed her a little more tonight and it will be more than enough speed for me, I can send the azz end sideways around  a corner no problem, very happy with it so far, stock for stock the 660 is 5 mph faster than the 450, of course until you change the CDI on the 660. and in a drag race from personal experience the 660 beat the 450 by a length and a half, if thats worth 1500-2000 more be my guest! again just my opinion.

Its also about manhood, engine wise.  "Mines bigger than yours"

I agree, at least you look at more than the "WOW" factor. Get by with what you need, no sense in paying for extra you don't need.

nice rhino

Someone had mentioned the 450 can run bigger tires due to the gearing and that is actually a false statement. Not taking anything away from the 450 because honestly I think it's a great package. The gearing was done on the 450 to make it reasonably comparable to the 660 in acceleration. The 660 will still handle bigger tires better due to the extra power and torque the engine makes. I have a friend with a 450 and it's very impressive with 26 589's on it. The advantage it has over the 660 is the price and snorkeling is less complicated on the 450. The only down side to me is the climbing ability. It does pretty good but it can struggle going up steep canal banks. The 450 needs a bit of a head start to really make it all the way up where the 660 pulls up pretty easily. Top speed isn't off by much but that doesn't matter to most and accleration is pretty close.

By the way there are CDI's out there for the 450. Not sure how much top speed you pick up with them but it surely can't hurt.

"The gearing was done on the 450 to make it reasonably comparable to the 660 in acceleration." You are right, geared 18% lower to accomidate the lack of power the 450 produces, the 660 will still beat the 450 in every way but to me does not in price, how many times have you been in the woods and a 4 cylinder buggy made it twice as far as the V8 buggy? Ive seen it tons of times due to the gearing, not saying the 450 is that dramatically lower and the 660 will still beat it but I think they did a good thing with the design to make up for lack of power. If you check over in the highlifter forum a couple of quys with 660's are trying to figure out how to switch out there trannies with a 450's
