I haven't had my Rhino but a few months, so still learning some of it's limits. I purchased it new (too hard to pass up some of the deals they are offering). It seems considerably more stable than the Grizzly I sold to finance it's purchase. But as others before have stated, the aptitude of the operator is the biggest factor. Yamaha did have a recall to add half doors and additional hand holds, which all new ones now leave the factory with. These can be quickly remedied by a new owner if they so wish. I, for now have left all intact.
I have found the Rhino is alot more useful around the house, then the Grizzly (or any previous ATV's) had been. The dump bed has numerous uses, and the Rhino is even getting the nod instead of the Kubota tractor in some uses. The ability to carry 2 people safely, plus gear has it's advantages at the hunting camp also. The only negative I personally have found, is the fact it won't fit in the truck bed. It has to be trailered back and forth between home and camp. Sometimes it was nice just to run the ATV up into the truck bed and make a quick trip to hunt. The Rhino also requires a trailer at least 10 feet in length. Naturally of course,(because I have a 8 foot ATV trailer), so I have to use my heavy duty (heavy)16 foot lowboy.
