ARGO will climb, crawl or swim anywhere you have to go, with the equipment and tools you need, at a cost you can afford. Argos are amphibious and utility vehicles that will take you places you cant go on foot or in a regular vehicle. Comes with accessories such as rubber tracks, custom colors, and more.

    the drivers of the 'other' vehicles do the same thing on every obstacle.
    1) Slow down at the bottom
    2) Step on the brakes half way up
    3) Jam on the throttle so the wheels spin.
    don't get me wrong - I love argos... but it's just so obvious.

    I have the new Argo Aurora 950 six and it drives and rides very similar to a traditional atv. It has the romp you need to fly up hills nicely like an atv does. Expensive but well worth it. The suspension is much nicer too. And the st trans allows for 35 mph speed which is nice when needed. It doesn’t handle high speeds and rough terrain like a side-by-side does but the improvements they’ve made are way damn nice. The steering handle has also been moved to the left side of the dash which is way nicer. There more of an all terrain vehicle instead of a swamp buggy now and I appreciate that. Go try one out I bought mine from Dallans RV in pleasant Grove Utah.

    Ive driven Argo's in Alaska during the 90's, besides the tires theres really no suspension system, so on ruff terrain the ride can be slightly harsh

    Thank you for the interest in our video. Argo's are wonderful for hunters and others who love the outdoors. Many previous customers have purchased Argo's for duck hunting in particular. SLE sells Argo's that range from $10, 399.00 and up. These products can be found at online at sleequipment or on our ebay store. If you would like to speak with a sales associate concerning the Argo please call 615-641-7720.

    • @brentspepper2087
      @brentspepper2087 9 лет назад

      I had a Ranger, it could have easily made that hill. That is not to put down the Argo in any way, but that hill could have been pulled easily with the Ranger.

    • @yamahandaatv5765
      @yamahandaatv5765 9 лет назад

      When they knew that it could make the challenge, but did not want to show it, they used the excuse that they did "want to damage the other vehicles"

  • @francovance1
    @francovance1 14 лет назад

    I remember reading a test some years ago on a British farming mag of a Max 6x6 and an equivalent Argo- they found the Max would keep going where the Argo was beaten, mainly because the Max had no differential and maintained drive to both sides...they did find the Max a little noisier but reckoned it was a small price to pay. Now I've never seen one of these machines up close and am just wondering what those of you who use them think.

  • @TheJohndeerelover
    @TheJohndeerelover 11 лет назад +1

    Gators are designed with full skid plates, just like the Argo. With snow one can also buy tracks for their side by side. I've seen tracks mounted on gators opposed to tires. My gator has a back seat, and now they have two bench seats and one can be mounted in the back with total safety and carry 6-10 passenger, much more than Argo and much safer. Other than water the Argo is a fail. John Deere gators and other side by sides are superior. If you want to tread water buy a boat or kayak.

  • @TheCountryboyfromGA
    @TheCountryboyfromGA 11 лет назад +1

    it says 4 wheeler not side x side

  • @caleb5001
    @caleb5001 11 лет назад +1

    Half the reason the ranger and gator aren't doing some of these obstacles is because the driver isn't trying (because he wants the Argo to win) like on the hill climb, if he just stayed on the gas and went at it with speed he would of been fine.

  • @brandonL2122
    @brandonL2122 13 лет назад

    I agree they need a roll cage, and the 6x6 John Deere isn't made to do that, its made for working environments, they should try the gator 4x4, it would keep right up with the Argo or do even better

    • @benherstad
      @benherstad 2 года назад

      Yeah, a little unfair they put a 6x4 Gator (no power to front wheels) in this test. A gator with powered front wheels (6x6) wouldve been a better comparison.

  • @MrEjoquinn
    @MrEjoquinn 13 лет назад

    So to all of you that are saying this is such a BS video, are you just ignoring the fact that the argo is completely amphibious? Try driving your rangers and gators and hondas through a lake and see how well they are working then. Argo's are the jam.

  • @Blakesr171
    @Blakesr171 11 лет назад

    so the Argo is a jetski with wheels and a powerful engine? i thought of this when i was 5 years old. The reason why it goes over terrain easier, is because all the wheels arnt separetly run, they are all connected. and having a special gear ratio can also cause a difference. to turn all it does is lock one side of its wheels. but who wants to bet it weighs around twice to 3x as much as the competitors.

  • @ronwest7930

  • @bcpioneer59
    @bcpioneer59 10 лет назад +1

    A very bias comparison as expected. I have owned 3 8 wheel argos and 15 4x4 atv's. They all have their place, but the Argo was obviously better in deep water cause it is a boat. But the plastic bottom would high center and gouge and leaving pieces of orange or green plastic on sharp rocks. The snow test was silly cause if you put tracks on a atv or side by side they will ruin circles around a argo and tracks, cause they have a foot more clearance. Would have been nice if for a John Deer they did not use a turf machine as a 6x6 is a 6x6 Argo or otherwise , but UTV has more clearance to start with even before getting 5" more with track. Let's make the test a little more apples to apples with non biased drivers

    I find it funny how they said they didn't want to go over the log because they'd damage the undercarriage! That cracks me up because the Polaris has a full skid plate. And also when they did a hill climb they didn't even try the Polaris because they'd knew it would beat it XD

    • @palco22
      @palco22 3 года назад +1

      Amusing comment. I was going to say, due to laws, regulations, responsibilities and liabilities these folks had to stay within safe operating procedures but in the hands of a skillful operator these Argos will beat, hands down any other machine. We had Argos and we did what no other off road machine could even dream of doing including crossing on water with two heavy guys plus one complete adult moose in the back and climbed mountain trails of over 40° incline with not one, not two but three deflated tires and with the moose ! Got to the camp and inflated the three tires and had a beer ! Keep your Polaris in the garage, you do not want to measure up to an Argo !

    Nice job argo... way to put down john deere and polaris. If you know how to handle your machine you can pretty much ride through anything. Pretty sad that guy of yours couldn't even make it up the hill on the gator... he should take some riding lessons. And by the way thats cool how the Argo 6X6 and 8X8 float... my fishing boat does that too.

    Well, other than the fact that they are painfully slow, more complicated to control, way to expensive, way too hyped, and water speed is 10x worse than land, and are not available in a lot of places. This is obviously the top of the line Argo a decade ago, against the absolute worst of each other. It’s made to make you spend $10,000- $20,000 on a slow, overpriced, amphibious four wheeler with a couple extra wheels.
