Out with the Old, In with the New

mercredi 31 octobre 2018

Phil and Jeff from Sloan Equipment in Effingham Il, brought my new 2018 John Deere Gator XUV 835M to its new home today. Hated to see the Kubota x900 go, but sometimes you have to try something different.

Phil was very helpful, the kind of dealer you like working with.

First impressions
Much quieter than the Kubota (diesel versus gas)
Much faster than the Kubota (Gator 54 hp)
Ride better in the Gator, heater and factory air in Gator

What I have to get use to in the shifting. In the kubota you could just get out once you stop while in gear and it wouldn't go anyplace. Gator, you need to put it in neutral, then set the brake, (no park, don't know if any utv's have park?)

Oh the boss was checking his seating location already.

I will never say anything bad about the Kubota, it is a great vehicle and it has worked for me for 4 years.
