    We have a similar Gator. ...the 835M HVAC. We find the gasoline powered version (835 vs. 865) to be much more 'peppy'. The M is much louder than the R due to lack of insulation material in the cab. In either case, we really like the machine.
    Thanks for the review.

    There is for sure a reason to have a side by side. If you have new babies out in the pasture and you run over a leg of one in tall grass, it is better with a lighter side by side than a Jeep or pickup. That being said, I think picking and choosing which options are needed vs nice to have is a very personal decision for each buyer.

    I think you’re right about a few things but I still think the price is crazy even if they did it. They should be having all those extra lights in there, especially on the front and the back of the top of the cab. 35 grand is just ridiculous and typical John Deere pricing, like their $200 electric drills that are the same as the $90 ones everyone else sells. Don’t get me wrong I love John Deere but they’re not exactly economical on a lot of things.

    5:38 trust me, you want all the goofy plastic. if you weigh the new gators against the old sheet metal ones, the new ones are WAY lighter. with a more efficient engine. every ounce that you save by not using sheet metal, its an ounce towards more power (higher thrust to weight ratio)
