Hello all! My first post at the forum here. I've been lurking for a while now, doing some research on buying a UTV for some land my wife and I just purchased.
I really went back and forth between the Polaris Ranger 800 and the JD Gator 825i. I like the workhorse qualities of the JD, but the recreational features of the Ranger.
Well, I was eyeing a used, 2011 825i over the past couple of weeks and I finally made a deal with the seller tonight.
160 hours; 600 miles; Big Horn package, grill guard, aftermarket steel roof with front and rear fog lights, bench seat, black and olive, etc. etc. Got it for $9500 flat.
Just wanted to get yall's consensus on whether or not I got a decent deal on this thing. I was weighing a used Gator 825 against a new or slightly used 2011 / 2012 Ranger 800.
I'd appreciate any input.
Thanks!
