 Re: Gatortail 35
Does this so called "gator tail" thing have a long paddle, or tail, like a real alligators tail?

 Re: Gatortail 35
Dude, don't do it, it has reverse, you will always have to be turning and looking behind u when u use reverse, and putting it in neutral all the time, what a PITA. The whole purpose in life is to move forward, get one of them crank and go.

 Re: Gatortail 35
ill try and help you out since your new. people get tired of retyping the same answer 9 billion times everytime someone like yourself gets on and asks a question. The search feature at the top will help you find what your looking for...and then some. your new...you didn't know any better. now go use the search feature and dont start your period over a few guys giving you sh!t.

 Re: Gatortail 35
Damn, look at dat I was called out  Dude, I posted http://www.gator-tail.com go visit the website, watch their videos get educated then come back & ask specific questions you didn't even mention the fact that MB does not have reverse yet Gator-Tail does... Here are some reasons why you should buy a Gator-Tail: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7PvpdrMjIg[/youtube] Here's the advantage of having reverse in deep sticky mud...

 Gatortail 35
My suggestion to you is to find some dealers and test drive each motor. That's the best thing you can do. It's hard to justify spending your money based on someone elses opinion.

 Re: Gatortail 35
everyone on here is going to have different opinions. and some guys push motors based on knowledge and experience. others have a little more business interest involved. go test drive some motors, and do your homework. you will learn a lot more. if you have specific questions then feel free to ask. just dont expect everyone to do all the leg work for you. contact the dealers if your close and go for a test run. if you cant get to a dealer, then offer a couple guys on here a few cold beers in exchange for a ride in their rig. im sure plenty would be willing to help. and getting made fun of is part of being on this site. If you need your self esteem raised...go call your mom.

 Re: Gatortail 35
I got a gatortail because i found a deal for sure, and couldnt be happier now would i want to drive others, ya to see whats the differences are and if i did buy new i would test drive each one. Went and bought a four wheeler last year, bought the best because ive driven them and so forth. like i said buying new go test drive them first if you find a great deal buy the deal if its worth it. jmo
