I have one--2004. I tow my Ranger 680 with it. The best thing about these rigs other than the ride is the gas mileage is excellent for a V8. I get close to 20mpg towing if you don't use the cruise control. Make sure the TSB for the transmission clunk was done. Requires a new propeller shaft/driveshaft. I just had mine done as I got tired of the issue.
