An Argo isn't that great in snow without the track kit, IMO. I tested an eight wheeler without the tracks and was stuck in about 14-inches of snow. With the track kit on, I walked right through 14-inches and deeper snow. Fun to drive.

For the money, I'd think about an ATV and add the track kit for it. I think that'd be more versatile using than an Argo.

i agree with dave, you need the track kit on an argo to do well in the snow, and a fully equiped 8x8 argo with tracks, cab etc will set you back around $14,000!! can buy to atv's and put mat tracks on one of them for that kind of $$!!
the benefit to an argo that i can see is if you were to go thru the ice, it will float much better than an atv will. also, you get a heated cab on the fully loaded model.
