I have duck hunted off of a 6 wheel and 4 wheel ranger. The 4 wheel ranger was much better than the 6. The mule seems to be more for the on road\pasture jobs, not the mud and muck. The 4x4 ranger is one bad machine.

Farmdux!!!! You ain't gotta do all that!! I mean buying your "riceman" a 4- wheeler to check from! :lol:
Just kidding I know what your talking about. But really. Look at the Yamaha Rhino. Its the thing. Like duck head said its go a 660 versus the 499 in the polaris, an independent rear end, lighter weight, cheaper, locking front end differential, all kinds of goodie.

I have a mule and I huntungbuddy of mine has a Ranger (both a 4x4 and 6x6). As far as going places the mule has gone everywhere the Ranger has, flooded fields, swamps, and woods. The performance in my opinion is the same. the difference is in the little convince things. The gas spout on the mule is under the rear bed and it is hard to fill it without raising the bed. The ranger's is easy to get to under the passenger seat and the gauge is easy to see. the front stoarge compatment on the mule cannot be used effectively when you have a windshield installed. I believ that the ranger front storage compartment opens the opposite way and thus can be used when a windshield is used.

As far as the Rinho goes, with bucket seats the is no room for a third rider. With the mule is is a comfortable with two adults and a child with the bench seat. same for the ranger.
