Let’s be clear... ALL machines have good points and bad points. If your going to beat the s*** out of it on the trails, it’s gonna f***in break no matter what brand you go with. If you ride somewhat easy less will break and most will hold up well, bottom line is go check them out for your self see what you like and don’t like and go for it.
I need both!

have you seen all three in person? If not first recommendation is to go to a dealer and sit in each one. most will let you drive them around the parking lot. one difference you will notice right away is how each engages as it increases speed. You will also notice the noise in the cab ... that experience alone will narrow the three down to at least 2.
note they all get warm in the summer when it is 90°+ outside and you have a full windshield. They all are louder than your car and they each feel different at different speeds.
do you need a dump bed ? That can narrow the selection down further.

it is a process of elimination of what fits your needs and likes. No wrong decisions.
I need two, the Pioneer and something else! HA!

Budget is going to make a difference too. in my area KRX and RMax are hard to come by so still getting MSRP. The Honda dealer has a lot full but I believe They are sticking to their price as well since supply is limited. I would definitely invest in time going to look at all three before making a decision.
I'm just waiting for all these Buffalo riders to buy the buggies they want and price comes down!

So, I’m in the market for a new machine.. I only need 2 seats. What’s the best machine out there for someone who wants to
Ride hard and not have a bunch of issues. I’m not brand loyal to anything and would like honest opinions please. I see myself traveling and riding all types of terrain.

Ive heard that these are hot!
