I don't have any experience with the newer Deere Gators. I hear they are nice. I would hate to have to deal with Sunsouth if anything ever went wrong. Even to the point if I needed to order a piece of broken plastic. They would act like I was trying to order a flux capacitor. The machine is probably great.

Of all the others mentioned I would say the Can AM and the Honda 1000 are at a higher level of engineering. They run smooth and everything is super tight and I feel like I'm driving a car as compared to some of the others mentioned. I have a Honda and Polaris Crew, Kubotas and Mules at work. I would say the Kawasaki is about like the Pioneer 700. Still a great machine but not quite the achievement they made with the 1000.


To keep trash from falling down between the seats on the Honda machines you can get a hard plastic bed liner (molded like you see in a pickup truck) for about $300 from Honda. It is an accessory. They also make a rubber bed mat.


No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.
