Default Teryx pronunciation?

I'm convinced that "Teryx" is pronounced just like it is read, (tear-ix) but I have heard Kawasaki sales guys, parts retailers, and the general public pronounce it, "T-Rex" many times. Probably about 50% of the time.

Lets clear this up!

I thought right on the Kawi page, it spelled it out to sound like Tear-ix. That's what I have been calling it, but like T-rex also.

Default Long e

I think it's a long e?? They should put the little line over the e in the logo.
