Certainly Denny, the most important reason the wolvy is now in the front is because Cathi likes it better and she is generally my riding partner. That being said, the wolvy is down right comfortable to drive and ride in. It has more storage inside, the riding position is better, dust is not as overpowering as the rhino, it's a lot quieter and the ride is incredible. Going all day in it is nothing. It is also has better traction and the low end, thanks to the extreme sheave, is great. The power is smooth and consistent throughout the entire range and it doesn't get stuck quite as easy as the rhino but does feel bigger and heavier. It also needs doors to keep some of the elements out. We call it the new Yamaha Buick..lol.
My rhino is faster and more responsive than the wolvy and handles like a euro-peen sports car so it's a reliable white knuckle ride from Hades that keeps you grinning wide. The rhino has a much smaller turning radius which comes in handy when you need to crank it sharp. It's almost as wide as the wolvy due to 2,5 wheels but drives much smaller. There's no over-steering even with the power steering and holds it's line like a champ. I don't care what anyone says, the dump bed is nice to have too. When you're hauln a in the rhino it's hard to keep your feet on the deck, it's really loud, rattles and sucks gas like a motor home but we have had countless hours of fun in it thing including the Outlaw Trails of WV. My rhino was built for the trails and that's where it excels.
