Gator or Mule

[Fendt516profi]

Anybody got the mule to replace a gator? Looking to swap but still on the side of gator because of the closeness of the backup for the gator, do I need to worry about the mule man been a good hour and a half away and a one-man band?

 

[MrNuts]

Try a Kubota RTV

The 900 was very slow up hill and I'm looking for something faster have a 8mile trip between land

The New RTV-X1110 has a bigger engine and revised gearbox, big improvement and 0% until the end of the month. Worth a look. Plus 40km/h is the homologated top speed, any brand is the same.

 

[Fendt516profi]

I know it's the legal top speed

I have inquired about one though the dealer said there selling faster than they can get them so no chance of a demo

Ended up ordering the new Polaris diesel although just been told it will be delayed due to a safety recall

We looking to change, gator has cost us a small fortune over last year.. was wondering about new Ranger. Which dealer have you bought it through?

 

[Fendt516profi]

I've swapped rather than put money into the gator. The ranger is better pulling up hill and rated to pull more was impressed with it. It's coming through BRM not to impressed with the more local dealer. Very impressed with BRM they are two hrs away and we discussed concerns over cost to look after it the cost to travel out to service it when he brought it on demo when he came back to pick it up he'd been thinking about it and come up with a very reasonable plan. Was a very can do attitude

Polaris Ranger or Gator are the only two worth buying but when you compare specs the Polaris wins nearly every category. On our second Ranger now and it's used every day of the year and has been near enough bomb proof, several neighbours have now changed to them as well after trying ours.

 

[Fendt516profi]

Well I took the fact that the gator dealer wasn't interested in sending me the new one on demo even though they knew I was trying others turned up in their yard with ranger to mean that they didn't rate it

We have a Gator and it is very needy. We kept our ATV when we bought it. Just as well!
I prefer the atv but the one big advantage of a cab is obvious.
The gator is no cattle chaser but would the new Kubota be fast enough? Might be worth waiting for the demo.

 

[Fendt516profi]

Best diesel cattle chaser will be the ranger, petrol will be canam traxter

I’ve 2016 ranger bought it last November with 600 hours has given plenty of small bits of trouble I’ve definitely spent €1000+ on it in 12 months and that’s just parts we do the repairs ourselves have 1150 hours on it now hopefully we are over the worst!!

Why have you spent money on it has it done all this after warranty. Was it any bother in warranty? I believe the older one were good at doing joints shafts and bearings. The new model is supposed to have all these uprated so hopefully should be better. Looking on line in Australia they offering them with 4 years warranty don't know why they can stand behind them for 4 years there and only 2 here

We have a mule pro dx
6000 miles no problem with it ar all

I didn’t own it while it was in warranty so had to pay for everything that was needed.It was owned by a big farm in uk before I got it
