Well I didn't vote cuz I can't pick 2 items but I would say the Brute or the Outlander. However, if it were me I would go with a gade 800R. Let me put it on the record saying that I've never even sat on any of those 3 and only seen the Brute in person. I would tend to lean towards the Can-Ams simply b/c the Outty has the same engine as the Gade and obviously from 3TV's experience and review of it thus far, the Gade is a powerhouse which is very intruiging to me. Personally I believe I would go with a gade and put some racks on it to carry small loads. if carrying big loads onboard was a necessity, then I would drop back to the Outlander and that would be my final answer.
When I was considering a gade, the Viscolock made me nervous also but simply b/c I read some threads in other boards that said it could take a couple of seconds for it to engage. However, Can-Am improved the speed of response on the Visco last year and from what I've heard, it's even more improved for the current model. If this is a hold-up for you from deciding on the Outlander, why don't you ask 3TV for full input on the Visco setup. I've briefly inquired with him when he first got the Gade and he implied he liked it and that it worked fine so far.
