ride now wanted $19,200 for there commander x out the door wonder what the polaris wil be out the door
The manufacturers are claiming dry weight in their specs. Kind of like horsepower claims.
On the RZR S vs. Comander XT video that Polaris put out, they actually show curb weight of both.
Yeah, but i doubt the vehicle has over 220 lbs of fluids in it.. hahah.The manufacturers are claiming dry weight in their specs. Kind of like horsepower claims.

have u weighed th xp with the same scale same amount of fuel mud etc....and adjusted the scale right?
I got the 19k from the post above me. Ride Now is a dealership down here, and they are known for adding a lot more to the cost of a vehicle if its in high demand.
Not sure exactly what you are meaning here. We weighed our Can-Am XT 1000 as it arrived to us from the showroom, minus removing the winch, and winch control box. Not sure on the exact amount of fuel, but it wasn't full. Maybe around 3/4 of a tank. There was no mud, or dirt on it, as it hadn't been driven when we weighed it. I don't have a weight for the RZR, as we don't have one here. I was just saying that the Can-Am weighs more than it claims on their site. And the video seems to be pretty accurate with a lot more difference than just 105 lbs.

It's funny how this argument has risen on pretty much any forum you look for. What we need is a real world comparison. Were both vehicles can be put to the test(s).
I say
Drag race,
top speed,
hill climb,
lap time around a good track
and to keep it for a testing towing something (got to give the commander at least one event)
Jason
Me personally I can't wait to watch the comparison. I was kind of disappointed that no one captured any real races between the 5 xp at glamis and a commander.

jagged had 5 RZRs (i believe) out in the dunes on new years weekend and they all significantly ran away from the commanders....

G-[/QUOTE] i was told they weigh bone dry no winch, bed rails,bumpers fuel ,water . just like polaris and every other brand does. (dry weight)... some have more water (better cooling)more fuel capacity(go farther)i think thats why they measure dry weight.

Never look at DRY WEIGHT ,,that doesn't jack chit,,,,I want to know how much something weighs with a full tank of gas,water,oil,ect ect.
It's like when companies claim HP numbers,it's always rated at the crank never to the wheels,so you take a commander that makes 83 HP and take away 25 to 30 hp by the time it goes threw the CVT and then the numbers don't look so impressive anymore.

Didn't honda change their reporting to include the actual weight of their products? If so I wish more manufacturers would do that.
I can tell you they've been run side by side extensively. I can also tell you that one DEFINATELY stood out fairly substantially in all but top speed, where they were really close (on pavement
). We'll just wait for other "non-invested" parties to give their impressions, because anything I/we say will be interpreted as showing "favoritism" anyway. If I were buying one of them, at full retail...it would NOT be yellow...that's all I'm saying.I'm going to guess that at least one of the manufacturers will do a educational video comparing the two
