Post New Mud Motor Convert
I wanted to take the opportunity to thank the Gator-Tail crew for their hospitality last weekend. I have been lurking on this site for about 3 months as I planned my first Mud Motor purchase. I live in Pennsylvania and will be using the boat in the New Jersey mud. Mud Motors are a rarity up here, so my only real source of information is this site. Last week I took the advice that I have read a hundred times on and flew down to LA to test drive a couple of boats. Mr. Broussard was kind enough to invite me to go ridin' with his crew and sample some of his boats.

My mind was blown. I can't believe where these things will go. The ride was great, although I am glad I rode with Gator Tail guys. If I had ridden in one of those ProDrives, I never would have seen so much of the marsh. Do the ProDrives always get stuck so easy? I could never own a ProDrive up here because there are no GTR's to pull me out when it got stuck.

I am a convert, and not just to Mud Motors and Gator Tail. Where can I go to renounce my Yankeeness? I want to be a Cajun. You guys sure know how to hunt, eat, and drink.

I am sold on the GTR and the Xtreme. I placed an order yesterday for an 1854 Xtreme with a GTR 35 and all the trimmings. Can't wait to get it. I will post a proper review from the Jersey mud once I get it.

Thanks again Kyle, Tony, Hoyt, Jason, and everyone else that went on the ride last week. Y'all sold me. Hope to ride with you again in the future.

wow, he didnt beat around the bush did he.

Dont hate on the PD's to bad now. They are a good motor also. Im waiting to win the lottery so I can buy two new engines, One GT and one PD. I might be waiting a while.

Anyway, glad you had fun and congrats on your decision.

Welcome to the site and to the mm brotherhood.

You have to get a few posts under your belt before your shit talking will be taken seriously around here. :lol:

You haven't convinced me to sell my Prodrive yet. :mrgreen:

You guys are sooooo easy. I just wanted to see if I could get a rise out of you.

I have nothing against ProDrives. Hell my 5 minutes of stick time certainly doesn't qualify me to comment on anything related to MM brands. In fact I think the FPR is pretty cool and I am glad I got to see one in action. The ProDrive just isn't right for me now.

What I really learned on my test drive is that it takes a lot of skill to drive one of these things well, and that brand is secondary to skill. It is going to take me a while to learn to drive one. Hopefully when I get stuck, I can find someone to pull me out.

My thanks again to everyone who has educated me on this purchase. I couldn't fathom trying to figure this out without MMT. And I will refrain from talking sh#t until my name has been on the boat's title for at least 20 minutes.
