Looks like you've made quite the investment there. Especially with that cab on it. If it's anything like most Deere equipment it should last a long time as long as you take care of it. I do like how it's set up. Got any videos of it doing work?
@WirchProductions Maybe I'm not the person to ask. I really don't see the purpose of these types of vehicles. As for outdoor use, considering how much they cost, I'd rather have an old CJ-5. As ranch/farm equipment maybe, but in that situation I'd rather have an old ford tractor.
Its pretty nice. My family has the 2010 Traditional 4x2 Gator. John Deere is the best stuff ever. I was born into a farming family and the gator is so helpful to use around the farm!!
Where i currently work we have two 6x4 gators. Very nice. It has a crock top on it, for looks, and to keep the rain off on those bad days. It is a nice rig to have
Awesome video, Ian. Its videos like these that enable people to gather information on tools like the gator so they can make an informed purchasing decision...besides, its just fun to watch! Please keep up the good work!
i got one no different but its an hpx turbo diesel with 5 speed atv tranny and i had to make it a flat bed cuz i had to extend it for the modds i pull 6000lbs with mine most the time
Hi Lan I like a lot your video (Stephan from canada) i am a maniac to of the getor i love everyting on it ,i got snow plow ,car horne,inside lighting, to,economic,the best valu to sale,exc..here my 4x4 gator HPX good job man ,
i have an 04 polaris ranger 6x6 and i must say it is the best thing ever. I take it on the backroads of my 2,000 acre farm Its not a diesel but it acts like it. I use it for hauling hay, towing trailers, and any other thing that needs to be done. Just wanted to say its a great machine and if anyone is looking for a vehicle like that i would recomend the polaris ranger 6x6 or the polaris ranger diesel. And i was looking for a gator 4x2 for my house.
your video is well done. I just don't understand those vehicles. Seems like a ton of money w/o much capability compared to a tractor or a beater 4x4 or the like.
@kenfo0 We do a TON of work on my Uncles ranch with his 2x4 Gator. We carry full sized hay bales, feed, pull trees, etc. Also we launch boats and pull out 4 wheelers with it. They are a workhorse, and I can only imagine what Ian's 4x6 Gator can do.
@LightoramaLED I didn't say "you can't do anything with them". I can use a $4k computer as a paperweight or doorstop, but it doesn't make much sense. I'm saying that a 4x4 pickup will do anything I can think you'd do with one of those. maybe going down a thin hunting trail, but if you're a real hunter, you ought to be humping it in, not riding in w/all kinds of equipment or "stocking" deer. Just my opinion.
@woodman1241 people keep writing the same junk. Nowhere did I say "you can't carry tools and stuff with a gator". I said, why pay THOUSANDS of dollars extra when a 4wd pickup (which a farmer likely already owns) will carry far more and can go about anywhere. The only reason I could see would be if one needed to go down a narrow trail, too narrow for a truck.
We love watching your family's gator. Why don't you make a spring video? Ian, we need to see you, this time. Up until now, we have only seen your shadow, while filming and your dad & brother. Come on, Ian! Jenn and I have to see if you are as cute as your Dad! Your yard is nicely manicured, too! :)
@TheJanemo10 Hey this is Ian thanks for watching and taking the time to comment on our videos. If you want to see the man behind the camera, go to myspace.com under people and search Ian Perkins and look at my profile. Im the first Ian Perkins that shows up, when you search Myspace. Leave comments thanks!!
It's pretty nice I like it. I like my 2011 XUV gator better. Mine has an independent rear suspension and can do anything and go anywhere. I love the John Deere diesel gators. They can do anything. I like yours but the new 2011 is really cool and I find it better than any other kind of Utillty Gator. Check out the 2011 XUV
I just bought and fixed up a gas gator 6x4 and i love it. i wouldnt trade it for the world. ( wel maybe a Diesel) by far the most handy versitile compact vehicle with the best weight handleing capabilities in its class
I've used a gator enough to know that their in the best working ability with the least amount of obstruction to view, and need maximum capacity of the dump bed. And uve wasted prob over 2500 dollars limiting its working ability. Plus its loud and slow. Its not a toocat buddy. Stop acting like its is! Boo ya.
The windows cant roll down. Its slow as shit. Expensive as hell. Toolbox takes up half the bed. noisy as hell. gets stuck everywhere. There is no use for this thing in the manor you have it set up. BORING. I use a gas version of this for landscaping and urs is dumb.
Awesome machine !! i really like it ! i could use that on my farm . think ill go check into getting one myself , thanks so much for the great video ! very informative
hey nice gator ive got the xuv and ive been wanting to put a cab on it but we have pretty warm seasons in TN and could you get ac with the cab bty very nice vid quality..
@heathdspain Hey thanks for the kind words. On our gator their isn't and option for A/C, but when it's hot we just take the doors off and the windshield also pushes out. I hope that answer's your question. Thank you again for watching and also taking the time to comment. My family also's has another gator video on youtube that we shot in the summer if you would like to check it out. just type john deere gator 6x4 summer video and its the first video that pops up. Thanks :)
@firstdowns14 I can agree with that, the ground clearance is low compared to other models thats why they can be hard to turn sometimes, still a beast though Thanks for watching and commenting!!
i like john deere as much as the next guy and own several peaces of jd equipment but the kubota rtv 1100 is the king of rtvs for the simple fact of ac and a radio
@The145shawn Hey if kubota works for you, their is nothing wrong with that. I have to say though it would be hard for me to buy one, i like John Deere to much.
Why would you need all those pampering acceseries. Its a gator, not a car. Why would you need a winsheild wipers or seatbelts - its not like your going to drive it on the road. This is just a waste of money.
Well now let's see - Since we use it in our Tree Company that puts us out in the elements unlike you who never gets out of his room. How does that saying go "If I have to explain it to you - you wouldn't understand. Oh and by the way we have added some more features that witll be uploaded soon. Have a nice day but don't forget to get a life too.
sick gator i wish i had a 6X4. i would deffinitly look into tire chains. i have a gator four by four that i snowplowwith and the chains make such a huge diference. check it out, i like the cab too. were gettin one for our gator sooooon
I have the same beast, but its a 97. Still has the 3 cyl Yanmar though, and was wondering if you know anything about the mechanics of said engine? Not basic stuff, actual workings. I need some help with some internals.
