"I looked at several side by side models, and found nothing that could compare with the overall quality of the John Deere 625i. The price was a little higher than some of the others, but I wanted something that could last for many years. The fact that the 625 is liquid cooled, gives it a much greater towing capacity. The bench seat fits my needs quite well and the tilt bed is great. It offers adequate speed, and the 4-wheel drive will take you anywhere you should go. I'm well satisfied with my John Deere XUV."
