Good looking RTV Jesse! Enjoy it.

Congratulations, that's going to be really nice during the heat of summer and the middle of winter. Nice not to have to deal with bugs too!!!! Did you get it in Tyler? I've bought parts from them and I'm really impressed with how quick they are at getting what I wanted, but every time I talk to them about buying, I get a salesman that I just don't get along with and end up going somewhere else.

Eddie, I bought it from Bagley Tractor in Longview. After I talked to the salesman there, I e-mailed him pictures of the gator so they could give me a quote on it. I actually loaded up my Gator and took it to Henderson so they could look at it. The salesman there never even bothered to call me back. I intended to check with Tyler but never got over there. So far I'm very satisfied with it, the A/C is GREAT!

It's on my wish list for someday...

Last time I got serious about an RTV I came across a Suzuki Samurai with a bad bearing in the transmission for $1,000... $130 dollars later I had replaced all the bearings and the clutch disk and it has been trouble free the last 15 years...

So far I really, really like this vehicle. The cab makes it everything I've needed in a UTV. My only possible complaint is the acceleration and top speed. I know this is a work machine and I seldom go over 12 mph in the pasture but the times I've tried to accelerate to full speed it's slow to go and can't get over 18 mph unless it's going downhill. The engine revs up but the speed comes up very slowly. I believe top speed is 25 mph but I don't think it can do that. Anyone else have the same results?

Mine won't hit 25 with the ac running.

25 max is all there is sadly. Even with a turbo as I understand it.

A top speed of 25 is fine but my question is whether all of the RTVs accelerate so slowly. It sounds like the engine is developing full rpm's but the speed doesn't seem to match what the engine rev's are. If you have a hydrostatic trans tractor you can run the engine at full throttle and press the pedal to run faster. Evidently the RTV trans is not designed to act the same way as a tractor does. I've noticed that you can back off the accelerator some and it will actually pick up speed. I've only tried to run full throttle a few times since it's still not broken in. I'm going to do the 50 hour oil change tomorrow, maybe there's something designed into the first trans filters that keep you from running too fast until you change them out.
