Why buy the CFORCE 600 from Empire
A well-equipped mid-size 4×4 that tows the most in its group and covers you the longest — for value money.
- ✓Most towing in the group. 1,500 lb — more than the Sportsman, Outlander, Honda and Yamaha.
- ✓Strong power + EPS standard. 44 hp ties the Sportsman and beats the Honda and Yamaha, with power steering included.
- ✓Longer warranty, winch-ready. A full year — double the Polaris, Can-Am and Yamaha — and the Touring trim adds a 3,500-lb winch standard.
- ●Straight talk. The Can-Am makes a touch more power (46 hp), and the Sportsman is a proven platform with the biggest aftermarket — but both give you half the warranty.
And the price is the price. Our advertised number already includes freight, setup and our documentation fee — only sales tax and title/registration are added.
