Been thinking about getting a Gator for awhile, finally did a few weeks ago for an early Mother's Day gift (expecting our first baby in a few more months). It's a 2011 XUV 825i 4x4. Absolutely love it. We're going to get a lot of use out of it, and have some fun with it too! My German Shorthairs love riding in it around the yard. We took it out last weekend looking for morels, but no luck finding any. Would love to fill the dump box up with some of those tasty little things!!!

Got a new 2011 825I Camo Gator tonight with the front brush gaurd with dump, also the tall black seats. Stock black wheels for now. Just drove down the driveway alittle bit and WOW it is nice and quiet and smooth compared to my 07 rhino.

Also got a STIHL FC70 trimmer for a Great price!! The wife will be busy tomorrow. Lol

Anyone have a bed mat in the rhino or any mods? I need to do?

I got a horn,lights,rear view mirror and winch to put on the gator but I am thinking about doing a Mutli mount for the winch so.......I will store it in the bed and then I can use it in the front or back

Congrats landscaper! You'll love it. We have the bed mat just because it was part of the package, otherwise I would have not spent the extra $ on it. But I will say it is really nice, thick quality so not a bad idea IMO. We have to get a winch yet, just not going to buy one thru JD because the price was outrageous! The multi mount for it is a great idea. I don't think we are going to add too much more to our's but do want to get a mirror and some more lights for it. So many of our trails around here are on the township roads and I just feel more lights would be safer.

Yes I did see the bed mat comes with that one package but I guess I wanted the extra 800 off so I had to get it before today. I am looking at say a mat the you stand on in your shop or put in your barn for cattle or horses I think it is used for and it for sure is a 1/2 inch thick! So I think that will work....which I hope to get that soon.

Thenwhen I find some time which will be tough with all my landscaping jobs I will work on the mirror,horn and stuff. I already see I need a weed eater/trimmer holder.

Well I got the bed mat in.

it seems like the miles add up...alot faster than the miles! Oh well

Now the question.........the 2 inch reciever in the back is sloppy....like up and down sloppy .... Is everyone else's??

Landscaper, mine is also but my front receiver is nice and tight...

Not sure what went on there but I do agree.

[landscaper]

I haven't looked to see. The play in it to see what I could put in there to help out.

Also on my last post the miles add up faster than the hours......I think I got 5.7 hours and 60 some miles. I haven't done much to it or even ridden it but I do have my to do list. Its hard working 7:30 to 4 then landscaping till dark.
