I've got 3-4 friends that all own the Commander 1000 and they seem to like them but personally, I am not that impressed with their off trail capabilities. I've got one buddy that has a cabin about 2 miles off the road and he has to buy tracks for it to get to his cabin, while I was able to get to it with my Rhino on Mudlite XTR's quite easily.
They are fast and take the bumps pretty well but I don't think I'd buy one and use it for any kind of utility work or for hunting.
I've also got a Rhino (09 700) and wouldn't trade it for anything. It is a bit loud inside but there are ways to fix that issue. They're aren't the fastest machine out there but they will go damn near anywhere you want to go with it.
