Does anyone have a Trail Gator? I can get a great deal on one and am considering purchasing one for my "Second ATV". I know it doesn't have much of a suspension and little ground clearance. I wonder how reliable? high maintenance? ability to last? Any advice or anyone with experience on Gator would be appreciated.

We have one that we use at work (industrial contract electricians) and to hunt out of,too. It's great...long as you keep in mind it doesn't have any suspension. Although, as you get better with it, you'll learn how to drive it and it rides better then. It does great in the mud because it only has a contact patch of 7 lbs/in on the sixwheeler. Ground clearance is not too bad, but neither is weight...you can haul anything you want in the bed...we've stacked deer in there like cordwood and have a couple of hunters in the hills where we hunt and not have any problem whatsoever.
