Great video! You sold me on buying tracks. I’ve had my new JD835R for 6 weeks and I know what I’m buying next for it. I’ve been a snowmobiler for 25 years now but my body isn’t fairing so well with it! The tracks will keep me going with heat, cup holders and plenty of in cab storage for Scooby snacks. 😊

What was the price tag on these particular tracks? I think John Deere’s version was about $5400. BTW, the Bible verses are much appreciated, our world needs truth & grace more than ever.

Great Video. As a snowmobiler, this was fun to watch.

Obviously y'all had a blast together, good to see.

Great video Tim, looks like a lot of fun. Congrats on the new Gator.

Great video. Looks like too much fun and it’s always better with a great guide. 😂

That cool machine Tim I think that would be a great way to get back into snowmobiling with HEAT.

lol Tim almost tips over the Gator🤣

2 nice vehicles, especially Gator on tracks

I had tracks on my polaris atv. It was impressive what they would go thru.

What a fun video.

wide tracks is where its at!!😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

How they compare do pushing snow

Too much fun!!!!

Tim you strike me as a man that's a Dog Faced Pony Soldier.

Yankum ropes...have you used those for a while? Might look at getting one or two for use here....seeing they are kinetic and built for pulling someone out.

LETS GET STARTED

"We try steel hills" typo! What was Ryan's backup plan if Sarge hadn't been able to effect the river rescue? What plans do you have for the tracks back in Indiana? Not much for snow or off road hills.

@TractorTimewithTim

Fixed. Not planning to bring to Indiana.

I was impressed with how well the 835R did with the tracks. Not sure if your Gator is still out here in Colorado but if you come back to play with it, let me know. I’d love to show you how my Gator RSX 860M performs.

It is still there…up on the Mountain.

The tracks on the Gator are nice, but the Snowcat wins me over. Mostly because I remember various Alistair MacLean stories with Snowcats when I was a kid and the imagery always stuck with me :). Were those bear tracks at 4:37?

I want a Gator but not sure I would ever use the tracks in Indiana.

@TractorTimewithTim

Жыл бұрын

Agreed..but I wanted to try them and see how they performed. Hopefully this video was helpful for you to see the same thing.

It would be interesting to measure and compare track area. I suspect the Snowcat has the advantage. It has 2.5 times the weight, but I am estimating 4 times the track area.

Thing is those tracks don't appear to be solid like they are on the Gator. They look to be the open ladder type. So you get more bite, but a higher ground PSI.

So do they have a youtube channel?

Yea, a bit confusing, for sure. The confusion is based on timing unfortunately. Ryan and Hannah are part of the former 4Rivers Equipment Ag John Deere dealership in Colorado. 4Rivers Ag division is merging with 21st Century Equipment. We have been working with 4Rivers for more than a year now with several visits and videos from CO. Make sense now?
