The hoot etv was developed in Canada then was bought by knox outdoor products in the USA. It's been out of production for about 2 years now. Still many available at dealers though.
The Hoot was based on the bombardier Alpine double track snowmobile and an argo aatv. You can see the similarities.
Although the hoot is a bit small . Less wide than my 420 Honda atv.
I do like the hoot . However it needs work as far as the stock unit is concerned.
I've had loaders before and they operate similar to an argo or max atv. One pump per side drives a sprocket with a chain to the other wheel(s). They require constant adjusting. This is a simpler lower maintenance design however those pumps are going to get really hot and im curious if there is a seperate pump for each wheel or lines running to each wheel from one or two pumps. If it blows a hydraulic line is it stranded or can it still operate? It'sdefinetely more heavy duty than an argo 16 hp.
It's vastly different then an Argo. It's full independant hydraullically driven drivetrain has no chains to adjust or jump off and no drve belt to wear out. It's maintainance intervals are very minimal and hydraulics are very reliable. Look at their website. I can't say it's the best out there but it's the one I'd choose. I've had buddies with Argos and their great. But these are absolute heavy duty.
"the hydro traxx is more than capaple of pulling you, your marines, and your rifles" I belive that is what was mean to be said. "also comes with the options of bullet proof plating and bullet proof windows" LOL
I know this is going to sound weird, but does anyone know the music that is being played during this video? I would love to get a copy w/o the voice over. Otherwise, this thing looks awesome!!
the thing about diesels is every fuel injection line has to be the same length. and i mean exactly the same length. if they aren't , the fuel won't be going in as fast as the others and it will be missing. they definetley have to be built to perfection.
If this isn't an Argo with a different name then it's a pony. I use an argo at work a lot, it has a v-twin kawasaki engine, and 8 wheels, no suspension. Total utility. Big payload, and go anywhere, and zero chance of rolling it. Needs a lot of maintenance though.
Not a true Amphibious vehicle, it's wheels are turened on land and water, and there is no propeller.

These are not particularly big.
Land tamer is much larger and uses the same drive systems.
The traxx goes more places than the argo for the simple fact that the tub/hull design vectors the water or terrain more towards the rear.
For a trail 6x6 with an atv like feel i would recommend a Hoot etv.

I've had and tried argo, traxx and trek. I prefer the traxx. It climbs better due to it being heavier. An argo frontier bounces all over the place.
Land tamer (TM) has better hydraulics than the traxx.
Muddox hydro-drive is gettgng better with time.
If i had to choose it would be either land tamer or hydrotraxx.
Hydrotrek has very little cargo room. But is a wonderful machine.
