We took the new toy (Rhino 660 SE) to the dunes and I was completely amazed at how capable it was. We duned it on just about everything with no problems at all. In 4WD it would pull up anything practically from a standing start. Now the suspension does limit how fast you can take bumps, but the engine was pretty impressive.
Really fun to dune, I'm very pleased with my purchase.
Congrats on the new Rhino:D
The whole RUV thing is a blast!!

Congrats. I love mine out there too. I put 205 miles on it this weekend at Glamis and had a blast. My brother-in-law from Florida went with us and he was really impressed when I duned up the back side of China Wall and then took him down the steepest part of the hill. I gassed it going down hill and then hit the brakes right before the whoops. Thought he might wet the seat. :D

Stock tires on 12x7 beadlock Douglas Rokstars air'ed down to 3 PSI. I started at 10, then 7, then 5, then 3. 3 was perfect. The rears look kinda flat, but that's the idea. The fronts take pretty good hits entering and exiting some bowls so I didn't want to go softer.
The rear tires spun, but always made forward progress. In 4-wheel-drive it motor'ed up anything.
