Does anyone own a john deere gator?

[Njoutlaw88]

Hey,

I'm thinking about purchasing a gator to drive around on the trails. I went to this one guys house in new jersey and he had one. It looked pretty quick. How much do you think they cost (used) and how fast do they go?

Do any of you drive these in the trails?

Any info would be great.

I dont know much about the Gator but i saw Chillinthemost on his Rhino and that thing is just as good as a quad. You might want to look into one of those.

Yeah that rhino is awesome we have had my friends airborne, submerged in mud and the bed filled wall to wall with 20 packs of beer!  But be careful when turning that sucker if rolls somewhat easily. Just ask Zilla_Kid he had a close encounter with the roll cage and his forehead.  He was bleeding like a stuck pig.

They go up and down my road all the time.. Tops they go around 30. They cost more than a quad...Why get one? They are slow turds.. Wider than any thing you are used to and you just wont have any fun on them when your stuck behind quads flying through trails while you have to have a pen and paper to calculate your width to make it through the next turn..

yea and if you put the cdi off a grizzly on it they will run in the 50 mph

We use Gators at work. They're junk. Wide, slow and they break really easy.
