    Very nice piece of equipment. Love the drone view of the green crops growing on a sunny day. Nothing of quality comes cheap today. Everything cost a lot of money.🚜

    We use have the same model. We love it. It really works good for picking rock. Two of us drive along & you can just step out & pick up the rocks. We have the lift on the bed & it works amazingly well dumping rocks on the rock pile. I think you will really enjoy the Gator.

    We have a 825i in camo without the glass cab, and it gets a lot of use around our 30 acre wooded property. Nice video!

    You'll love your Gator! I bought a XUV855D mainly for fence repair (carry a big Puma gas compressor + fencing stuff) and its far exceeded all expectations. I get pretty good mpg and reliability after 7 months has been excellent. I'm glad to see you get one Ryan...even if it's mainly your dads 😜

    Fine video. I have a 2004 Mule 3010 fully tricked out and 1,200 hours. Its 12 years old though when UTVs were first born. No wonder you love the JD 825i. The engine, suspension and cab are light years from the Mule. Enjoy it. Its awesome. When I get too old to drive my tractor, I'll get one of these to replace the Mule. Keep the great videos coming. I really enjoy them.

    • @cjeam9199

      To me that doesn't seem like much use in 12 years. Is that normal?

      I am the 2nd owner and use it at my 2nd home about 150 acres haying only so it gets light use. All around utility vehicle for chores and boat hauling. Love the 8251 and your videos.

    The 825i is a great Gator, it is smooth with its performance and gets up and goes very nicely. We did the same thing u did, say bye to the Mule and get a Gator but recently we got the new 835m Gator and gave the 825i to my grandfather and he loves it much better than the Mule it seems

  • @ssangler2010
    @ssangler2010 7 років тому

    you will need a little plug in heater for the winter to keep the windows from fogging. you can pick up a cheap one that plugs into the access. we have the same unit with the same cab.

    • @HowFarmsWork
      @HowFarmsWork  7 років тому +1

      I think it'll throw off enough heat from the radiator up front. Mostly what we've always needed is a windbreak.

  • @hunterhyde6152
    @hunterhyde6152 7 років тому

    We have a 825i and we love it Tint the all the windows but just a tint strip on the front and it will make the cab a lot cooler also we added a light bar on the front due to the factory lights being so dim.

  • @Stu650Zuk

    Great looking SXS! I am a new sub and have been enjoying your vids. I grew up a farm boy in rural PA. I own a 2013 Kubota 1120d right now and it still looks new to this day and only has 600 miles on it. I just use it for snow plow duty and have a nice Curtis 72" power angle plow system on it. I've been looking to get a new SXS that is more trail friendly than my Kubota. Bottom line is,,,it's pitifully slow, and shifting gears can be a real chore at times. It does however plow very nicely and great on fuel being diesel. I've been reading up on your model in this video and watched several reviews. Sounds like what I am looking for. I love my hydraulic dump bed on the Kubota so I want to keep a power assist dump. The 825i is supposed to be one of the best riding non full sport SXS on the market. I also like that is has basically a inline 3cyl. car engine for power. Being CVT would do away with my shifting woes of the Kubota. Kubota should have fixed that issue long ago. Its just hard to mix a shiftable transmission on what is basically a hydrostatic tractor style engine/trans. It would of been better with a hand throttle and a foot pedal for forward and reverse like a garden tractor. Other than that its been flawless and looks new so selling it will be no issue. My Curtis plow was $4500 alone. Do you know if the CVT belt system on your 825i has a centrifgul clutch to keep constant belt tension at all times? I want one that is set up that way instead of being a "belt slammer" as I call them that fry belts easily. I see the new Kawasaki Mule Pro FX and FXT look to be powered by the same exact engine as your 825i. The JD looks nicer to me, but Kawasaki has a 3yr. warranty...unheard of.lol. I will be doing more research soon. I also want to keep a plow set up like mine which is elec/hydraulic with its own pump instead of going back to a winch powered plow like I used to use on my atv's. Thanks for the great videos. My son loves the tractors..I like you have many engines to maintain...lol! Mine aren't nearly the size of yours though. I only have my old Ford 3910 with FEL and other 3 point attachments left now..It's been a great old 50hp mid sized tractor...sorry so long...thanks again from a new sub...I gotta get a good camera and make some real vids for youtube...just my sons phone cam stuff he and his friends goofed with. I will see how to add pics to my profile here so you can see my Kubota.

    we have the same model at work, only a few years old. You might want to look into the add on heater option as it is a cold tin can in the winter. and the clock on the display is never correct lol, not a big deal. We have a Boss plow for ours and it is useless, it won't​ push worth a darn. Take care

    I really like your videos it reminds me of home when I was a kid. We lived on a massive pig ranch in West texas but we did a lot of farming every year as well usually wheat and sorghum grain. We had John deere's as well the 40-20 was our most common plough tractor we used it a lot for cutting and bailing the hay as well. Where are you guys located. It looks a lot like Kansas but I ain't sure

The base MSRP for the 835 is over $17,000.....give me a break...it's a oversized 4 wheeler with a dump bed...not a pickup or a jeep....So...I'm buying a Geo Tracker and cutting the top off it!!!
