New Gator

[jcmseven]

Has anyone had an opportunity to go to the Florida show and take a look (or a picture) of one of the new Gators?? There has been some talk in the UTV/ATV section, but I figure my chances of getting some more concrete information about specs and release date, etc., might be via our JD threads. My friend the dealer was to have gone this month, but he has been sick with H1N1 and is not in travel shape, thuus no information for me so far.

Thanks.

I am scheduled to leave tomorrow morning. So as long as I don't come down with the old H1N1 before then, I should be able to relay some information about them. Is there anything in particular you want to know? From what I can tell, there should be no differences in outward appearances, other than possibly decals, etc. The major changes that I know of are in engine, top speed and suspension.

There also supposed to change the seats, and dash by putting an LCD display for speed and engine gages. Oh, and it gets the new bed too.

I think the old one needs some updating so that would be a welcome change

I just bought the 2010 TX gator. It replaced an 06 version. If someone is just looking for a worker around the farm as we were the new TX is a HUGE improvement over the old one. New twin motor, longer wheelbase and the new bed. The new bed is great and the suspension is much softer. Won't work as a play UTV but as a run around it is great.

Looks sharp! But I think I will hang on to my '04 HPX...it has a whopping 60 hours on it!
