| We took a couple to Rock Springs, Wy. with paddles and had a blast. The tallest dune there was about 200 ft. tall and steep, and we had to let off the throttle at the top

| | From what I've seen done in testing, comparing to the raptor, the pred will smoke it going up dunes, the raptor doesnt stand a chance against it |

| Ive had my 500 for a couple months now...Been out to the Dunes twice, and it goes up any hill out there...most of them in 2 or 3rd gear. Great dune climbing machine...and goes up them fast too!

| | Your friend doesn't know what he is talking about. I have a 03 predator and I live by the Oregon dunes and ride them alot. The predator has more than enough power to get you up any hill you will want to clime. When I first got my predator I took it out on the dunes without paddles and there wasn't a hill I couldn't clime. It might have taken me a couple tries on the big hills but it did it. |

| NO offense, but your friend needs to use ALL of the throttle. I sold my Banshee a few years ago and honestly couldn't tell you which one has the edge on hill climbing. I would give my current quad (predator 500) the edge on more technical hills and trails. The Predator comes on strong and keeps coming on stronger throughout the entire throttle

| Your friend is dead wrong. This thing eats hills.
